Chapter 35: Chapter 34

As the light of day filled the room Remy opened his eyes to find himself and Ellie entwined together. Ellie's snoring assured him that she was still heavily sleeping. He gently untangled himself from her trying not to wake her. He stretched. How long had it been since he had slept what was it about her presence that soothed the beast within. He got up and pulled the blankets to ckbet her again. Then headed to the kitchen to cook. The rainy season would be upon them soon and Ellie hadn't last the house since het arrived. He hoped she wouldn't be feeling trapped. His mind wandered as he cooked mostly reflecting on the past. Was it a good idea to keep secrets from her? To think.he had scolded Asmodious for doing the exact same thing as he was doing. The truth was that yesterday he hadn't went out for milk but to deal with a threat that he had sensed. A beast of darkness had appeared. Although these beasts often appear in remote areas they usually stay away from towns. The eat flesh so hunt others in remote areas. The come through mini voids that pop up. Almost like a tear in the surface of reality these tiny voids appear only big enough for one or two beasts to appear before closing again. People like him are meant to hunt and kill these things before they cause any damage. Buy this one was stalking them. Not hunting but observing. It was strange. Best to deal with it quickly than let it return with any information about Ellie. Dark magic had an increased aura lately which had some of the officials on edge as it could be a prelude to the void collapsing releasing those trapped within. Remy sighed heavily..no he did the right thing. No need for her to worry...yet. Ellie entered the kitchen as he was laying the table he smiled at her.
