As if reliving the unbearable pain of losing Anastasia, Zen went rushing out of the castle and all the way around it to get to where Rupert called him, looking extremely disconcerted all the while.
He was just about to take a look at the barrier and make sure that it was working when he got a call from him. As soon as he discovered what was his panic all about, he felt his heart stopping for what seemed like a very long moment. His whole frame went extremely pale while his body quivered uncontrollably.
Then, before Zen knew it, he was already racing down the hall like a madman - running as fast as he could.
"Why...?! Why are you doing this, Sia...?!" he kept bolting out inside his head, brows furrowed and teeth clenched tightly.
"Were you that repelled?! Did you really want to fight me off to such an extent?!"
Zen feels sick in his stomach as dread keeps pooling its pit.
