A blackness, sudden and complete, fell over Murmur’s room. It made all the horrible things I’d seen thus far disappear. For that, I was grateful.

I was also scared. I now sat on the ceiling of a manse whose owner collected souls, commanded creatures without heads, and could reverse gravity at will.

I was terrified, but the anger still flowed through my veins along with the warmth that radiated out from my right palm.

“Prince.” The room rustled as his voice came to me, full of confidence once more. “I can smell your fear. I can taste it, and it tastes divine.”

I didn’t answer.

“This is no way to hold a conversation. Did you still wish to tell me your secret?” Murmur asked. He sounded like he was indulging a small child’s repeated cries to be listened to.

“You said that I held no secrets from you,” I responded, waiting.

Without light, it was his move and he knew that. It still sounded like his voice was coming from my right.

“I do not think that you do, dear prince, but the idea that you might intrigues me,” Murmur said. The voices of the Soulless danced with his voice.

A smile, which felt foreign after all I’d seen, crept onto my face.

“You’re worried that you can’t read all of my thoughts, aren’t you?” I asked, laughing with a smirk.

“You laugh at me?” Murmur whispered. The voices of the Soulless were silent. Everything was silent.

“You’re worried, aren’t you?” I asked again, letting out that same laughing smirk at the end. Being the asshole I knew I could be. My hand throbbed.

“YOU LAUGH AT ME?!” Murmur screamed. The Soulless screamed and shrieked with him. “YOU DARE TO LAUGH AT ME?!”

“Yeah,” I said. I was no longer scared, no longer terrified.

The room filled with rushing air as the hanging souls breathed in deep breaths and expelled rage filled sighs.

Perfect.

“I will kill you first, prince. Then I will take your Lucie’s soul and make her a part of my collection. Do you know what I will do next? Do you?” His voice wavered with the rage that must be burning in him.

“Yes,” I said. Preparing, I flexed my fingers.

“No. I don’t think you do. I will let my Chosen stalk her in this room for months, maybe years. I will let them toy with her until she loses her sanity, until she throws up because of the fear that has taken over every cell in her body, until she is screaming for them to kill her already. I will make sure that her neck doesn’t break when she is hung.

“I will make sure that her stake is much wider than usual. I will let only her bodyweight bear her down this stake. It will take days for her body to reach the bottom of the stake and she will be aware of all of it. If she passes out as the pregnant one did, my Chosen will hold her up until she awakens. Only then will she be allowed to continue her torturous decent to the bottom.
