Tough Choice

..."Does it matter?"

Merlin replied with a straight face.

"Of Course it matters. The woman I love is involved "

Stace replied confrontationally.

"Oh love love love.. you young ones hold on too tight to that illusion. "

Merlin replied as he walked back to where he stood.

… Accessing the powers in the girls and then transferring it to you. Does that sound safe?"

Merlin asked sarcastically as he was now standing face to face with Stace.

"Then you better come up with a better solution"

Stace replied, infuriated.

"And how long exactly do you think you would keep protecting them? Her? You have been lucky , you won't always be"

Merlin warned , he looked straight in Stace's eyes as he blinked , looking away , almost like the words hit him.
