"It was nothing." He shrugged.

No wonder he had been very interested in helping her find those witches.

There was a time she had almost tricked herself into thinking he did that because he considered them as friends.

How ridiculous.

"You told them about the gems?"

"I told them to extract every unnatural link you had."

Belladonna frowned, taking a step forward.
