She didnt take her eyes off of his, but the look was focused and nothing hostile in it.
" I deeply apologyse for my ignorance about your rules Wolfgang. "
She took a long breath as she studied the glowing liquid inside the vial. Her desire grew stronger. She noticed the music slightly change again, but it wasnt an agressive change yet rather a gentle one, like hot tea being poured in a mug. Slowly but steadily she extended her arm and reached for the vial. As they both held it, he loosened his grip and the vial was in her grasp.
Her eyes were now laser focused on Wolfgang and the rest of the world dissapeared from her thought.
" I am willing to understand the path, but i will need.....protection. My men, my drones might get hunted down, and as we go on this path together, alliances should be born anew. Trouble may and will arise, and i do not wish to stand alone. "
She incpected the vial of glowing orange color as if she saw beauty of an uncut diamond for the first time.
" With this in my veins and my blood, i will be branded a criminal, something i have shuned from all my life. But i guess it is time for me to finally embrace my birthright. Do not let me face the shadows alone Wolfgang. "
Valerie still looked straight in to his eyes, hoping he understands what she asks of him.
