Even if Luca didn't want to leave by then, the pressure coming from Alessa's gaze was slightly crushing his conviction to stay. In the end, he had to pull away from Noah and leave him on the floor. However, when he did so, Noah grabbed his arm.
His dark eyes looked up at Luca and Alessa.
Alessa returned the glare and watched him sit up properly. However, the grip he had on her brother's arm was still there. She huffed. "There's nothing to be scared of. We're his family. It's more dangerous for him to be left in a witch's company."
"Then, I can rest assured that Luca won't get hurt?"
Alessa glared harder at the question thrown at her. Did this witch think that Luca's own family would hurt him? Then again, judging from the circumstances, it was already miraculous that she only stood behind Luca today.
If it was another hunter, she would have to sever their head for convening with a witch.
