“Where the hell am I?” Lucius muttered, waking from his forced sleep.

“You’re in my house. And you better behave, because I’m not a very patient man. I promised to look after you, but your mother isn’t here anymore, so she won’t know if something happens to you,” Anthony Moriarty said, his piercing gaze locked on Lucius.
