Alister noticed Andrew’s outfit which was familiar to him. It was the same armor that the guards of the fighting ring wore. He didn’t press for information, but sat there and watch the newcomer. From the moment he walked in, Allister knew the man was a nuance. He wanted to kill him right then and there but decided to watch instead. 

He immediately regretted his decision when Andrew started talking to him. His blood started to boil the more the man talked. “Excuse me? Ali?”

Alister crossed his arm, closed his eyes, and tried to calm himself. He stared at Andrew feeling his anger slowing reaching it’s limit when he felt two hands on his shoulder, then a wave of warmth. Anger was always a trigger for him, which was the real reason that Valeria was there to keep him from turning. He signed a contract with the two sisters to help him with his problem which was always a challenge. 

“You need to leave,” Alister said getting up from his seat. Valeria followed his lead and moved, still invisible to the world. Slowly, Allister turned his blood into stands of threads that formed a maze of blood. To the naked eye, the threads are invisible but they are as deadly as any weapon.
