- We had a deal! - Christopher hissed, throwing knives at him with his eyes and aggressively gesticulating with his hands.

- Horel is right! - I said loudly, earning myself an angry look from King Adaman. - Even if you go there with our people now, he will kill them as well.

- It's not time for them yet. The last experiment was thwarted, you know that yourself. And those that are, are not yet trained. They will be like a double-edged sword if you release them now. Even with their numbers, we have to make sure that they will follow our orders unconditionally. - I raised my voice, trying to hammer this truth into his head.

- And what, such powerful magicians can't cope with one vampire? - There was an undisguised mockery in his voice.
