Chapter 104: Alter Ego

“Vincent!” I called and stopped when I noticed something. His eyes… are glowing. I thought. “What’s… happening?” I asked. “Hey, Sorceress!” I called. “Sorceress! Sorceress… whoa!” I exclaimed when the dagger where I’m trapped moved. “What – “

“Yelena.” I heard a voice called.

I froze. “Phi… Phillix?” I said, looked around. “Phillix! Is that you?” I asked. “Where are you?”

He sighed. “I’m inside your consciousness.” he answered.

“Huh?” I was taken aback.

“Listen, Yelena.” he said. “Remember when we all went back to America after the Yaia froze? We talked about how to thaw the ice that’s enveloping Yaia. Ah. Wait. You must’ve forgotten since you were drunk – “ he said and sighed. I could see him do a face slap. “Anyway. I told you only Vincent could do that since it was his gift. And he could only thaw the ice if he learns to accept himself. But – “ he said.

“’but’?” I asked.

“But… I haven’t considered this. I’m really an idiot – ugh!” he groaned.
