Chapter 78
Aaliyah
Slowly peeling my eyes open, I groaned at the pounding headache. Blinking against the sunlight filtering through the window, I stood up from the bed, and after completing my morning routine, I sat down the black magic book. The more I read and understood, the stronger I became.
I felt the magic deep in my bones. First step: I would need to meet with Sarah. The two of us have some things to discuss.
Leaving for the living room, I didn't see Tristan, nor did I want to. The only thing I was focused on was destroying the Book of Dis. As I walked towards the door, two guards dressed in black appeared in front of me.
My lips thinned in annoyance. Of course, Tristan had set up guards to watch my every step. What did he think I was? A child? I scoffed.
"Get out of my way. I want to leave," I said, but they remained still. I shrugged, taking one step forward when one of the guards spoke up.
