Kapitel 293: CHAPTER 293 Risk

　　~ JESSE ~

　　I changed my clothes with shaking hands, asked Rake to take me outside- at which point he reminded me that they still hadn't found whoever had shot Cazz and there was no chance in hell that he was taking me out of the Catacombs.

　　Well, shit.

　　"I need a space to just practice with this power, without hurting anyone."

　　Rake frowned. "We could go to the Den?" he said. "That's the biggest space in the caves and no one will be there early in the morning. They closed hours ago and won't open until lunch."

　　My skin crawled- but it crawled more at the idea of trying to compel Cazz without having more practice. And now that I'd woken those roiling snakes up, they were moving and pushing to be let out again.

　　I couldn't let it build up like I had last time, I knew. So, praying for the peace of mind and focus I was going to need, I followed Rake down, down, down to the Den.
