Cassius wasn't surprised that he knew and Alessio continued to smile wider, grinning, "You have even become one with it but odd, you haven't been using the power at all against me. Why? Am I such a weak opponent that you wish to not fight with your fullest power?"
"Perhaps so," shrugged Cassius and Lastor behind him frowned.
If Cassius's power had obeyed him, they wouldn't be stuck like this and killing Alessio wouldn't be so difficult! Then again, to make his power follow his words and order wasn't easy and couldn't be done now without the proper items needed for the ritual.
Cassius stared down at the man, his shadow cast long by the flickering candlelight from the broken house. "Then you know how this ends."
Alessio slowly stood, still smiling, blood staining his teeth. "I know... that I'm going to enjoy every second of this fight."
