章 90: I Don't Deserve This

Looking at the mark that was branded onto Kol's skin, Laina could not help but feel sorry for him. He must have tried different ways to have it removed but it would not have been easy. 

At first glance, Laina thought it was a regular branding. Heated metal applied to the skin. It would have been excruciatingly painful, no doubt about that. But upon closer inspection, Laina realized it was not that simple. 

"You've tried to find a way to get rid of it before, right?" Laina asked.

Kol nodded with a sad look on his face, "I've been to a healer and he said he can't remove it."

"That's because it has been enhanced with magic spells. Margaret and I will figure something out. Between her and I, I'm sure we'll find a way."

"You'll do it, for me?" Kol could not believe the kindness he received. After a lifetime of pain and suffering in the hand of his previous masters, Laina was a true blessing.
