ARIA
“Hunter,” I sit next to the werewolf, who still covers his face and doesn’t move, “Hunter, do you hear me?”
Silence.
“Hunter, please! We need to go!” I say quickly, taking his hands in mine and making him finally look at me. His eyes are slowly getting back to normal, although they still look darker. Not his usual clear blue colour at all…
“Aria,” he says finally in a broken voice, “Just leave me here! I… I can’t do this anymore…”
“Hunter!” I brush my hand over his cheek, “I am so sorry! For everything! And I had to do this. You know that, right?”
He nods quietly.
“And now I need you to stand up and go with me,” I say carefully, “Please, Hunter, I think that loads of demons are going to be here any moment.”
“You go,” he pronounces lifelessly, “I’ll catch up.”
