I could feel my heart pounding, with my breath caught in my throat. It was hard to watch, but my eyes were glued to the scene of Liara in Carmina's embrace.
In my head, a weird thought flashed; the memory of Liara admitting she'd dated Lisha of the Elementals before we met.
Gods, sometimes I hated my ability to remember random stuff like this. Especially stuff that just sent my anxiety up a notch.
"Promise me," Liara spoke up.
It was a whisper I could barely hear from the seat I was trapped in, but I did hear it. Even the gentle way my betrothed spoke with Carmina.
"Anything, beautiful one," Carmina replied in a voice that oozed charm.
Liara hesitated for a second, her face scrunching up like she was trying to resist Carmina's temptation.
"Promise me…" Her next words sent relief flooding into my chest. "…that you'll share the vampire lord's blood with Will…"
