"The witches are held in Azazel's room. Good luck finding them."
All I could do was watch his back until he made a turn and was gone. I stood still in the same spot for a long time, staring at my shadow. Earlier, I noticed Niall's shadow. He didn't have the shadow of a human anymore.
His shadow was huge that covered the entire hallway behind him. He was slowly becoming a monster, for sure. The witches' blood… taking more of it would be dangerous. Not just for Niall, but for everyone.
He would morph into a real devil.
"Why did he tell me where the witches were?" I wondered, furrowing my brows. "Azazel's room…"
I slowly turned around and sauntered through the hallway. Niall had shown me around the palace on my first three days. No other royalty lived in this place aside from Niall. They were all forced into an eternal slumber along with the emperor, he said.
