Hades
My blood ran cold at the implications of her words. I knew as well as her what it meant. I knew what black veins meant. Mind fracturing just to manipulate the subject into ensuring they didn't remember, I knew what it all meant because...
I had attempted to do the same to Eve, to make her forget what I had done to her but she had been alert and Rhea had not made it possible. So I knew instantly that this pointed to none other that the entity that had just been purged from me. There waa no other explanation. But how could it be possible.
Eve's voice was croak, as she spoke again. "Do you feel tendrils in your mind?" Her eyes were flared and I could feel her hairs raising from where I stood beside her, my body mirrored the reaction.
Her question made the woman on the screen freeze.
Not just still—but petrified.
Eve hadn't raised her voice. She hadn't even leaned in. But the weight of her words landed like thunder in a stormless room.
Do you feel tendrils in your mind?
