Yay next chap finished
What will he do with me? Why can't he just let us go? The black-robed Magician held his eyes closed and he slightly frowned, as though he was thinking about his next action.
Now would be the perfect moment to get away, if it wasn't for this stupid barrier. Damn magic. It was the only reason why he could keep her in here. Without his magical power, he wouldn't have any control over anybody. I bet he feels smug because he saved two little slumdweller's lives. Isn't he selfless?
Sonea snorted scornful. Yes, these guys probably really thought like that; maybe he even expected gratefulness.
The sudden noise must have interrupted him, because he now stared at her face and Akkarin's cold calculating look entered his eyes. For the first time she could really see his features, yet the only thing she was able to think of was black. Everything about this man seemed to be black. His hair, his eyes, his expression... Sonea nearly expected him to open his mouth and show a set of black teeth.
"Sonea? Did he call you like this?" He pointed at Cery who still lay on the floor. Sonea didn't answer, but listened fascinated. Even his voice sounded dark, a bit hoarse, yet still melodious. Furthermore it was accent free, no dropped letters, which was usual in the slums.
It took her a few seconds to understand what he said and she nodded hastily. "Please just let us go." The words came out before she could cover her mouth. The magician regarded her sternly. "Maybe I will. You just have to give me your hand." Instinctively Sonea pulled her hand out of his reach, who knew what he was about to do? Do I have another choice? Maybe he'll be so pleased if I do what he wants that he lets us go...
Very slowly she led her fingertips towards his arm.
