9. Necessity

Necessity.

Definition: The condition of being essential or indispensible.

To Mari, Seighart was a necessity to solving the secret behind immortality. Perhaps a mere necessary tool to her, something she could use for research purposes only. A mere specimen for her to examine. Then after that, she could easily dispose of him.

But there was something about Seighart. He made Mari's heart beat fast, her palms sweat, something about him makes her silent and cold demeanor to dissolve.

Was this love? Infatuation?

She hoped not.
