Chapter 59: To the fair

Just as she was about to push herself up to her feet, she felt something crawling on her wrists. She stroked it with her thumb and a frown tugged at her face, ''Vines...?" They felt like ordinary vines to touch but how could they move like this.

As the vines tightened on her hands, Esme struggled to move. The vines slowly captured her legs, binding her to the place. 

Esme frowned and she pursed her lips while attempting to move. ''Leo....'' She called out to the white tiger when she was reminded that he was there with her. The vines tightened around her wrist, ''Leo...Al-'' 

Her chest heaved up and down as she sat up on the bed.

She blinked slowly as she tilted her head to the side, ''When did you come back?" She asked as she found Aleister sitting beside her on the bed. 

''What happened?' He asked instead of answering her question.
