บท 225: Tribulations: This Makes Three (Yes I'm Counting).

*Flap* *Flap* *Flap*

Hal flew closer to Arya whose eyes were widened and she shivered for a short while before she raised her chin in defiance but the sentiment was ruined by her shaky voice, 

"A-a-a-alright then, k-k-kill me" she said.

Hal looked taken aback, 

"Kill you? Why would I do that?" He said and looked down at the Blood Knights, 

"Why does everyone think death is what I always have in mind?"

The Blood Knights who had once been gang members and remembered something similar being said on the day Hal contracted them looked down while his ladies just shook their heads at him.

"I mean, why do you think I'd kill you?" Hal asked and pressed his face closer to Arya's who shivered, 

"Because of... all I've done?"

"Nonsense! We all make mistakes and I am ready to forgive you for your attempts to harm those close to me which is easy since none of them actually died.
