"So.. you're my payment..." Celvic mumbled, looking over Evaline in a way someone shouldn't look at a child.
Evaline shook in fear as Celvic leaned into Evaline's ear and whispered, "don't tell your father, but, you're worth at least 100,000 Ruble."
"Get away from him, Celvic!" Elliot growled as he pulled Celvic off of Evaline.
"Scary!" Evaline whined, running out of the room.
Evaline bolted out of the house, down the street towards the village. He was almost to Marian's when a was caught by a pair of arms and dragged into the shadows of the alleyway.
"Scarry, Daddy! Scary, scary, scary!" Evaline screamed, kicking and flailing. A small, though not to Evaline, hand clamped over his mouth.
"Shh!" a voice said as another hand pointed as a couple of big men ran by. When the voice decided it was safe, he looked down at Evaline.
"Okay, I'm going to remove my hand, don't scream."
Evaline nodded and the hand was removed.
"SCARY! Scary, sc-" the hand was back.
"Shh.. Don't scream or the big men will get us."
Evaline nodded, staying silent when the hand was gone.
"Now. I'm Lustrayn," the person said, smiling.
