Malachi leaves but his condition remains in the room with me. It’s heavy on my mind and pressing in my thoughts.I’ll never agree to something like that.A bitter feeling crawls down the back of my throat but i push it down. I feel stupid for feeling good while i was speaking to him a while ago. No
It dies once it’s been satisfied. I’m sure it’ll take one or two “encounters” for him to realize he doesn’t want me. It had to take Tieran becoming my shining knight in armor for me to survive, but the moment that happens, Malachi suddenly comes to his senses and demands something he lost.If i ref
