Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate

Chapter 272

Chapter 272 At the Morgue

Ann and Adam followed Bartholomew to his office, requesting breakfast from a passing omega as they made their way there.

Once inside the safety of his office, Bartholomew took the stone from his pocket and placed it on his desk as they sat and looked at it.

“Soulstone? It sounds kind of ominous.” Adam commented dryly. “That’s because it sort of is.”

Ann answered as she reached for the stone and held it to the light that streamed in through the window.

“If you look closely Adam, sometimes you can see the solidified energy of the soul inside…like a mist that’s infused within the stone.” Bartholomew explained.

“It’s filled with dead people?!” He exclaimed in horror. Bartholomew chuckled and shook his head.

“I suppose it is. Soulstone was formed from the souls of thousands perhaps, all fossilized centuries ago when the gods themselves roamed the earth and walked among us in various guises. It can only be found in the realms that were eventually given over to the Daemons as they rose, and accessible only by those who rule those lands.”

“How come you’re such an expert on all of this Bartholomew?” Adam asked suspiciously, clearly unnerved by the composition of the soulstone.

“Spend enough years in this place and eventually you’ll have read enough books enough times to be able to answer most questions with a degree of certainty,” Bartholomew chuckled, “It also helps to have spent a lot of time with both Lord Brarthroroz and his wife over the years.”

“You have a fair point.” Adam nodded begrudgingly.
