"Miss?" I called back.

I raised my gaze on him. "Yes?"

"The lords Barnaby would like to speak with you, if she is available."

"Tell them to meet me" I grabbed my cup. "I would like to first finish my wine."

As soon as the cup empty touched the table, the security man invited us out of the room. When I Davil we stood up, I realized that the twins were no longer there. They were gone.

I was almost sure that it was not from them that there was escorting, but in the silence , I and my companion the following.

Davil had an expression of unabashed at my side, but I knew that he was angry. My plan, however, was working to perfection, he could not deny it.

The guard on the tie we escorted back in the lobby of the hotel, is now empty, and then he called the elevator. We went in and we waited that situation, the number of the floor, the last one, before the metal doors close.

The silence was intense, I was afraid that anything would come out of my mouth would have been able to ruin everything. I still had no idea how we would have managed the fact that the entire room would have a way to see what would happen in that room.

I imagined that the intentions of Davil were those of perlustrarla to hurry, take some photos for the detective and run away before they were to ask for explanations. Already I sensed the anxiety attanagliarmi the stomach, sounded like a plan too simple for that dark place.

We arrived early at the destination. A hallway from the red carpets are stretched in front of us. In addition to the service port of the side of the elevator, there was only one door on that floor, mahogany, and all the rest of the walls were covered with paintings imitating the style of Caravaggio. Plants and nature, death, details,

attention.

The guard there escorted to the entrance of the room. "Now you can continue from just" warned us. "You'll find a room, before the red one, there is all the essentials. The camera is already recovering, but the microphones are turned off and is at your discretion, then turn them on.

We know that some people prefer a bit of privacy".

"And when we're done?" "The

Barnaby will decide when you have finished. You'll understand why you turn off the cameras and you will be granted a few minutes to calm down". The man threw open the door on a dark stormy.

A thrill I went up along the back, contorcendomi the meat. I left Davil the honor of making the first step to the preparation room. Not as soon as we were both inside, the guard closed the door behind us.

The light is turned on. The red walls were damask, I realized that the color was chosen to cover the blood that she would certainly have finished on the wall, even where it was the main performance.

I Looked Davil. "And now?" I asked him. "We need to hurry".

He passed the finger-tip on the table attached to the wall, right next to the second door, the one that would bring in the red room. I realized I was only in that moment what was up there.

"There is no hurry," I replied. "You'll have to keep your side until the end, though. Now there's no going back".

"What do you mean?" I couldn't understand what was

his plan.

Then Davil he watched me as if I was telling the most obvious thing in the world, and as her gaze softened, in realize that really I did not understand what he was saying. "Fuck, Kerys..." imprecò.

"Really don't you understand?"

"Explained".

Only when he spoke I made the account when I was accepted to participate in that evening, I had not fully understood what it meant.

"You'll have to torturarmi," he said cryptically. "Unless you prefer that I torturing you, but I think I would be more willing to endure certain things".

I took a step back, I found myself scontrarmi with the other table.

"No I can do it". I aggrappai with the hands to the edge of the wood pushing against my thighs.

Davil you stagliò with his imposing figure in front of me. "You must, if you want us to get o here."

"How are we going to take pictures?"

"We will act when the camera is off". "Davil..."

"Choose a mask," he pointed

at the table behind me. "We don't have

any more time to lose, I'll look into it."

Did not leave me a chance to reply, he went away, and she reached the door.

He entered the red room and then shut it again behind her, leaving me alone.

The chest began to rise and fall so frantic thoughts

raced. I was going into a panic. Breathe.

I turned on myself, and I found myself face to face with the table full of masks, hoods and balaclavas, there were all types.

He grabbed one at random, and a flash froze my movements. The appearance of the likeness in the ma

Frugai until I found one that was in my case, one of the ones that came in the mid-face, up to his nose. Not covered me entirely, but enough. It was

I chose.

I

reached the head inside and closed the zip on the back, with a breathing deep then I felt the top I was assured that the two ears black hair attached above were straight and I walked towards the door without hesitation.

Chapter 21

Witchcraft in your lips

And if I lose the compass in the forest, chase fox fires. Take you to me.

Kerys

It is said that the knights are to live according to a principle consecrated: the true nobility transcends social class and that of the soul.

A knight is not only a role, she lives it. Bravery, honor, and loyalty are what it eats, the trail supreme, which he rides.

A knight is a man of honor. Do not pull back in front of a challenge and fights until the last drop of blood.

Davil was there, sitting on the red leather couch. At the side, and tables with candles; others were lit and scattered all over the place, giving the room an atmosphere even more eerie, together with the led hanging from the ceiling.

He was back, with shoulders bent and the hands together, while I waited. He was sacrificing for me. As a knight who follows his code of honour, he left me the first step in that duel.

I could only succumb to the decision to get me back and face what was awaiting me. Let me sprinkle the salvation that I guaranteed, by sacrificing himself.

I was sure that after that night I would have always looked at me with the same eyes.

He was the first thing that caught my attention as soon as I crossed the threshold and I closed the door behind her. Then, gradually, I also noticed the camera placed in front dahlias.

I

walked towards him, and I caught and finally, the last piece of the room, the table placed in front

instrument of torture.

Held a gasp and I looked inside of me the courage I need to face all that awaited me.

The mask around my head was almost suffocating, now
