Selene paced the dim corridor of her lair, her sharp eyes scanning every corner.
Something felt… off.
The girl, once obedient without question, hesitated for the first time when Selene gave a command.
Her fingers trembled slightly,not from fear, but from hesitation.
Selene's brows furrowed. 👁👁
"Did I imagine it?" she muttered, testing the girl again.
"Pick up the vial… now." 🔊
The girl's hands moved slowly, almost deliberately, and girl's icy stare sharpened.
Her instincts screamed.
Something was changing.
Later, observing through her security monitors, Selene noticed subtle shifts: 😎
Selene watched carefully, her eyes scanning more than before
She paused when Selene's back was turned
Small notes and symbols appeared where the girl had been 👀
Selene's lips curved into a cold smile, but it was uneasy.
"Interesting… very interesting," she whispered.
"Perhaps the little one remembers more than she lets on. Or perhaps… she is hiding something." 😦
The thought sent a chill through her.
For the first time, Selene felt that the Safehouse, the potion, and her control over the child might not be enough.
And somewhere, deep in the shadows of the lair, a plan was forming;silent, careful, dangerous. 🔴
Selene didn't yet know it, but the little girl was no longer hers to control.
And the three outside;the sister, Eric, and Ravihan,were quietly preparing to turn the tide. 🔄
