I turned around after giving Bey and Law a smile, facing Zero and Fabian. The latter was not smiling, but he wasn't retaliating against the sword pointing at his neck. Fabian was just standing there, holding my gaze with those sharp eyes.
"I'm sorry, Fabi," I apologized under my breath.
"It's not your fault. I didn't realize hurting that person also put the young master at risk. I deserve death." The side of Fabian's lips stretched into a smile until his eyes squinted. "It was a long life, but the last months are worthwhile."
"Butler, are you dying?" Zero cocked his head to the side with a playful smirk.
"Well, you wouldn't let me off, will you?" Fabian glanced at him leisurely with the same smile.
My eyes drooped until they were partially closed, staring at Fabian's demeanor. "Can you not kill him?" I asked under my breath.
"He needs to die." Stefan's reply was cold and emotionless, leaving me with no room for negotiation.
