Thank you for reading the book everyone <3

The switcher let out a mocking laugh, seemingly unfazed by their current predicament. "What makes you think I am male?"

Hadeon arched an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips. "Well, isn't it obvious? Women can barely pass me without ogling. I'm simply too dazzling to be ignored." He circled the chair, his eyes never leaving the switcher. "So, back to the question—why do you want her dead?"

Mallory couldn't fathom why anyone would want her dead. She had never harmed anyone. Hattie had been innocent too, yet she was gone.

The switcher remained silent, provoking Hadeon to take action. With a swift movement, the rod in Hadeon's hand descended on the switcher's foot, specifically targeting the little toe. The agonised scream that followed echoed through the nearby corridors, "AHHHH!!" But Hadeon wasn't finished. He pulled the rod away and struck again, this time hitting the next toe.
