Nirena, with a barely visible shock on her face, put on a friendly smile as Veronika cheerfully showed pictures of Adam. The fairy felt her back grow damp with cold sweat, while her body weakened tenfold. Memories flooded her mind, from when she had wanted to tease the handsome demon but ended up getting flustered, although she managed to stop in time.
"I hope he doesn't spill the beans. Even better if he forgets, or else this crazy woman will kill me!" Nirena awkwardly smiled as her mind teetered on the brink.
"Here he is, training in magic with Lucius! And here he is surrounded by maids, but I killed them long ago," Veronika giggled like a smitten maiden, but her words were cruel.
"..."
Now Nirena wished to turn into a frog. Or a bird. Any animal would do, as long as she could escape from the clutches of this predatory woman.
