Raising My Enemy's Disciple
Chapter Six.
The darkest place is always right under the candle.
“YOU ARE A WITCH!”
The air reverberated with Kael's astonished exclamation, a shockwave that seemed to freeze time for a heartbeat. For a moment, everything fell silent—the distant crackling of the fire paused, the last echo of Alterna’s cherry-munching stilled, and even the flicker of the candle flames tapered into stillness.
Elena smiled, amusement dancing in her eyes like the candlelight. “You shouldn’t be shouting loudly at night, child. You will wake the monsters here.” Her voice was layered with warning, but a playful glimmer betrayed her facade, lips curling into a strange smile.
