Her nails were tapping the table. She looked bored.

“Are you sure you want this?” She bore her golden eyes into mine.

I took a breath and made my eyes stern. “Of course.” I walked over to her cage. “Anyways, you have no choice, since we already made a contract. So, just go ahead and do it already!”

She didn’t move an inch.

My voice grew weaker. “Come on! I command you to!”

Her nails tapped louder as she continued to stare at me blankly. Then, she rolled her eyes and sighed. “Fine. If that is what you want.” Her red lips started to grow into a smile. “Then you shall have it!” By the snap of her fingers, Remy, who I chained to my bed, exploded with blood. I smiled.

But then, I looked at my feet to find a purple flame burning me.

I heard her laugh.

“You mortals are so pathetic. You really thought a contract meant something? Ha! The only reason why I asked if you really wanted it was because if he died, then you would have to, too. Farewell stupid mortal!”

And just like that, I was gone.
