Calleb looked at Lidya, who approached him lazily before crouching down in front of him. Out of instinct, the Gamma moved away from her, but his act was rewarded with a deep sigh from the witch.
"Where do you think you can go in this condition?" Lidya asked, as she leaned closer to Calleb. "If I wanted to kill you, I would have done it when you were asleep, not now."
Calleb didn't believe her immediately, after experiencing life and death, it was hard for him to let his guard down. On the other hand, what Lidya said was right. "Why are you here with the dwarf? Why were you not in the castle to ward off the curse?"
The curse that forced those shifters to lose their inner beasts and rendered them helpless to the state where they weren't even able to fight back.
