A Wish

At this moment, two Elders, Mr. Lugo and Master Aiden, expressed their willingness to take Bobby on as their student. Mr. Hayden stood where he was and didn't say anything. Bobby, meanwhile, was cut off by Master Aiden's offer. If Mr. Lugo would just agree to take me on as a student, Bobby thought, that would have been fine. The whole situation is more troublesome now that Master Aiden has said that he wants me to be a student as well. There is an ominous smile on Master Aiden's face, and Bobby immediately understood what it meant. Master Aiden was giving Bobby a chance to join his side as he'd done with Noah. He was hoping with his offer to hurt Lord Anderson. If Lord Anderson had known what was happening, he would have been enraged.

At the same time, Bobby thought, it's forcing me to make a decision. If Bobby chose Mr. Lugo, there would be no way back. He and Master Aiden would be enemies, and Master Aiden would do his best to oppress or dispose of them.
