Author's POV
"What?" Eryain asked, not believing his ears. Had he heard the dark lord right?
"You...you want me to meet with Elaine?" He asked slowly, his voice coming out quieter than he intended as if trying to comprehend what had just come out of his Lord's mouth.
He was completely caught off guard by his lord's command, confused beyond belief.
Why would he want him to do that?! It was like sending him into the lion's den...to death herself.
She would kill him after what he did and he was sure Yaya wouldn't be able to save him.
"My Lord, I...I-" He trailed off not knowing what to say or how to make his lord understand.
"Eryain," The dark lord spoke, looking him straight in the eyes. "Do you have a problem doing that?" As he said those words, his face darkened and if looks could kill, Eryain would have bled out from the look the dark lord gave him.
