Chapter 270_ Anas, my little witch

The rain continued to fall, a relentless downpour that matched the tempest within our souls. The world seemed to mourn with us, the relentless beat of the raindrops a somber requiem.

That is if they've even found out at all—" I was still speaking when she interrupted.
With voice sharper than blade, "We cannot tell them, they will take us!" My doppelganger protested.
She must have traded all of her senses for powers, I decided as I reasoned with her.
