Chapter 76
Anastasia felt gentle hands lifting her from the ground. She slowly fluttered her eyes open to see the blurry figure of Cassius.
"Open your eyes, Ana," he urged, holding her cheek. "Come on, Ana."
Anastasia continued bleeding from her nose as images of witches burning to death filled her mind.
"Estra endo seis!"
"AHH," Anastasia screamed, her body on fire.
"Ana, please, I need you to open your eyes."
"It hurts," she groaned, clutching her chest where the pain was unbearable. It felt as if she had been thrown into a fire.
"Make it stop, please."
She continued bleeding, her mind filled with images of witches. She saw all fifteen of them, their anger making her feel five times the pain they had endured.
"I'm burning… please make it stop. I'm going to die."
"No, you are not going to die," Cassius said. "I will not allow it."
