---- The footsteps stilled.

My heart skipped a beat, confusion drowning out the fear.

That voice...

I recognized it My eyes fluttered open, tears streaking down my face, and I saw him.

Those heterochromatic eyes.

Vincenzo.

He stood at the edge of the chaos, his eyes dark and unyielding staring blankly at me.

But, Sir? someone started to protest, but the tone that followed left no room for argument.

This is my subject.

And only [ have the right to conduct this test.

Now fucking leave! His voice echoed in the room and I feel everyone cower and flinch in fear.

If I was not mistaken I even felt the floor under everyone's feet trembling at his ---- eee command 100 percent transition.noveldrama

He is the most deadliest monster of all in here.

One by one, footsteps shuffled out, leaving me alone with him and the grotesque machine.

I tried to speak, but my voice was nothing more than a broken whisper.

Rill...

me please..

He stares at me blankly for a few minutes and then I see him extending his finger towards me.I close my eyes in fear, when something soft brushes again my lips.

Tlis finger tips.

Shh little one.

Don't talk about death.

Nothing is going to happen to you.

He looks at me so deeply that for a second I felt hypnotized by his mere eyes.

There was a pull in them, a call for destruction and I was finding myself moving closer to it.

---- A dying parched person would even drink poison And his eyes.

They were that poison.

Please, I croaked, my vision swimming.

Don't.

He leaned down, his face inches from mine, and for a moment, I thought I saw something human in his eyes.

Regret, maybe.

Or guilt.

But then he spoke, his voice low and firm.

You'll survive this, Robin.

You have to.

Because once you do, you'll be mine.

And I'll make sure no one ever touches you again.

---- eee = Chapter 380 His words were a promise and a curse all at once Those twin coloured eyes watched me burn into flames yet did nothing to help.

He was with the enemy.

Yet he made me feel like he was my benefactor.

A friend or a for? I was too broken to decipher at the moment.

Peace.

That's all I wanted right now.

An escape from this mind numbing pain, and he was the only one who could give it to me right now.

So I begged him, pleaded for my death, yet its very reference burned a fire in those emotionless orbs.

Why? Why doesn't he just kill me!
