"That the morning Marsella also asks me to supply her blood! It's flattering, I must admit... to have you seek my blood."

Augustus chuckled while shaking his head, recalling the abrupt request that morning from her. It was just funny for him since this Marsella he called Eve for evening, and the Marsella in the morning was similar in a way. 

"Imagine... you asked me for my blood." He scoffed in ridicule, raising his gaze on her back. "Hilarious, isn't it? To speak the words you will never speak being uttered by the poisonous tongue of yours... funny... really funny."

Marsella raised her brows as she listened to his sarcastic remarks. She licked her lips, tasting the sweet blood that was left in her mouth.
