Summary
The boy at his feet breathed in ragged gasps, choking on smoke and ash. Through the roar of the fire, Ashveil couldn't hear him cough, but he could see his clouded eyes rolling back from suffocation.
He should leave.
Death would be the kinder fate.
And yet, instead of turning away, Ashveil lowered himself onto one knee beside the limp body sprawled across the rainbow-sheened pavement.
In the fading gaze fixed on him, he found no trace of despair.
Only hatred.
Had the boy possessed even a shred of strength, he would have lunged at him like a cornered animal and sunk his teeth into the hand offered to him.
Tilting his head, Ashveil snapped his fingers.
A viscous shadow peeled itself away from his own and coiled tightly around the motionless child.
A second later, the smoke-choked alley stood empty.
