Guilt

'Hmm, ever so gentle your touch is. Like a mother caressing her new-born child. So gentle... yet so... chaotic. Like a savage beast, a beast who doesn't know what a soft, untarnished baby is. Why does it... treat me like a child? Can't it see the vileness that sleeps inside me?'

'How long will I drift in this darkness? It feels warm and cozy, I wouldn't mind not leaving at all.'

Helkep's lingering consciousness went silent. He slowly drifted along with the darkness. Time passed by, he felt as if millions of years had passed by yet light didn't come for him.

As Helkep's body collided with the hard ground, the hidden boss's ears twitched. He looked towards the room where the sound came from and slowly got up.

Whoosh!

His figure flickered like a lit candle flame and he appeared next to the door.

He moved his hand towards the knob and opened the door.

Seeing the opened door a grin formed on his handsome face. He raised his head and walked inside with pride.
