I stood there and watched him as my mind tried to process everything he said.
"Do you need me to do anything for you?"
"Yes." He smiled brightly, "I thought you wouldn't ask."
I frown at him, "it's only right for me to do something good for you in return for your help. One good turn deserves another."
"Wisely said, my child."
"So, what do you want?"
"Thrust your claws into my chest, and remove my heart."
"What?"
My eyes widened comically at his words. "You want me to kill you?"
He nodded at my question, "if you want to do something good for me, then you have to do this. Do you think it's pleasant to live a life like this? Death is the answer to my peace."
"You wish to die? Aren't you afraid of death?"
