Lyra didn't say anything. Maybe because she knew he won't kill her because of Avery. She sigh deeply and slowly walked up to him. She carefully placed her hand on his shoulder.
James knew Lyra was behind him. But he didn't say a single word. He just kept holding Avery's hand rubbing it calmly and softly not saying anything.
"You know deep down that the herbal mixture can regenerate her blood"? She said in a low tone.
James stood up and slowly let go of Avery's hand. He turned to look at Lyra and had his expressionless facade on. You won't give her any herbal mixture. He said coldly and with a form of authority. Lyra was taken aback by his words. She had thought he'd agree easily the moment he didn't kill her but to her surprise, he refused.
