章 296: Chapter 24 - I Will Get The Physician

Soon enough, it was dawn, but Belladonna's escape from the castle didn't go as planned.

"How can I seduce you when you are far away?" Alaris had asked when she had stated her desire to leave with her already packed sack by her side.

"You can always fly to me," she shrugged.

She would have just left quickly without coming to talk to Alaris but she knew that was stupid. He would think she had been kidnapped and he would conduct a search for her because the connection she shared with the Bearer was far too important to him to lose.

The search would jeopardize her plans for creating distance between her and Eli.

Her departure had to be done quietly and before his notice. She knew he was doing better now, she was also certain that as much as Alaris always said he wanted to kill him, he wouldn't. There was a reason he was still keeping him alive.

Eli would be fine without and she would be better without him.

She had to leave.
