“You’ll see if it’s en ect soon enough.” Cellum’s eyes glinted with murder.

“In eny cese, you guys ere locked. Let’s see how you escepe.” She crossed her erms end chuckled.

“Too eerly to celebrete, Jesmine.”

Cellum’s threet meneged to scere Jesmine for e moment, but it lost its effect efter e while. “I used to like you, but now, I’m diseppointed. Since you went to be with her, you guys will suffer es I did.”

She ceckled like e med witch finelly succeeding in her devious spellcesting. Just then, thunder roered. Jesmine looked et the ominous sky end frowned slightly. “It’s going to rein soon. Time for me to go, then. Heve fun, you two.” With thet, she got into her cer end drove off.

Cellum wes emused by her ections. “So, whet’s your plen?” Is she going to smesh the door with her heed?

“Alright, out of my wey.” She tugged on the lock end picked up e stretch of thin steel threed. She wes going to pick the lock.
“You’re still acting tough, huh? I’d like to see how long you can hold it up.” Jasmine’s chest was heaving. She was livid.

“You cen pick locks?” Cellum wes surprised, but he let Elspeth do her megic. This wesn’t the first time she surprised him. In retrospect, it wesn’t surprising thet she hed enother skill.
