An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

After Brian stepped back, Dustin stepped forward to start treating Alicia. Because of Kenan’s misdiagnosis and treatment, the voodoo had spread throughout her body.

The tablet Dustin had just crafted wasn’t enough to remove the voodoo. He also needed to use silver needles to draw it out first.

However, the voodoo was like a spirit and would evade detection, making it challenging to extract with needles alone.

The best plan was for Dustin to use himself as bait. He had to absorb the voodoo from Alicia’s body into his own. It was risky, but there was no other choice. To save her, he had to give it a shot.

He told Grace, “I’ll use silver needles to gather the voodoo energy in one spot on Alicia’s body later.

“Then, I’ll use my hands to draw most of it into my own body. The whole process has to go perfectly, so I need you to watch over me and make sure nobody interrupts.”

He looked back at Grace to stress how serious he was. Among everyone there, she was the only one he truly trusted.

The process was dangerous. While he could handle it because of his strong foundation, Alicia couldn’t. If something went wrong and the voodoo turned against them, it could kill her instantly.

She was worried and asked, “You’ve already used up a lot of energy crafting the tablet. Are you sure you can handle this?”

She knew that he had already used up most of his mystical pure energy earlier to speed up making the tablet. Now, he was about to tire himself out even more by drawing out the voodoo, which wasn’t an easy task.
