Gift

The look in Gavrael's eyes as he said the words 'it's too late now' was heartbreaking. Even though there was a slight smile playing on his face, the pain and sadness that were brimming in his fiery blue eyes could be seen as clear as day. His emotions at that moment were all over the place and his cold face could no longer hide them no matter how he tried. 

"Could it be that… this is…" Gavriel's eyes widened in shock. He remembered the thoughts he heard from Gavrael about the price he had to pay. It had been quite unclear to Gavriel as Gavrael's thoughts were a complete mess lately. He had not really thought twice about why it was so, but now he had a bad feeling that it might be related to what he had just said.
