Suddenly, Jesse was above him, and Shamal's pupils widened as he looked up

Shamal's rapid breaths were suddenly cut short
How could he have forgotten? They had ht” Only long after Jesse lay back down did he allow himself to reply quietly in his heart

The next day, Shalimmer of dawn
”Breakfast is on the table Meet rey workers' uniform over his head
Shamal reached for the clothes sleepily, then stared at theiven on his first day here as a slave As Jesse first described, they were durable, tear resistant, and rather ‘easy on the eyes' And it was indeed easy on the eyes, for no matter how you looked upon it, it left you with only one iarden here they cultivated all types of plants necessary for warlock potions and concoctions Tending to it was also one of the many jobs he used to have here
Jesse wasn't there when he arrived He stood outside the garden, but when he tried to take a look inside, people i here!?” A massively tall warlock walked out with a pair of scissors in hand
Shauy He was called Nikola, and he had neverfor Jesse”
Nikola sneered ”You wouldn't happen to be here to steal our secret recipes noould you?”
Shalance fro ”If I wanted to steal those, I would have done it a thousand years ago”
”That's right, a thousand years ago” Nikola gritted his teeth ”Who knohat you'd already stolen frorow cold If he were in Jesse's shoes, if Jesse was the one who had arrived in the faerie world and tried to approach him, he would be suspicious of any ulteriorthe saave hi anything? Too scared?”
Shaot proof I've stolen anything then bring it out now Stop bitching otherwise” (2)
Nikola wasn't quite sure what he ' but he could tell froood ”Hht you back? Do you think he'll let you run about like you used to, causing trouble everywhere? If that's so, then I'er!”
Shamal was stunned ”What did you say?”
”This is the realm of warlocks, where even our leader y” (3) Nikola lifted his chin and stared down at him ”You knoho my father is?”
Elder Shepard Sha his silence, assumed he was afraid now He was just about to continue his tirade, but when he saw the face of thebehind Sha his head, he hurried back into the garden
He was leaving just like that? Sha to find words to counter with, watched in astonishment
”You're two minutes late” Jesse spoke from behind him
Shamal head suddenly bowed back down Back then, whenever he was late, Jesse would punish hie Ever since, he learned that warlock villages covered rather enormous areas He turned around slowly and forced a sripped his hoe in hand and began walking as he spoke ”That's not the correct answer”
Correct answer?
Shaarden He stood in place and thought hard to hi quietly ”The correct answer he wanted…it wouldn't happen to be…the bed was too hard, my dreams were too deep, the sun rose too early?”

The garden was divided into four sections
Nikola and the others were in charge of three sections, leaving only one perfectly square plot filled with three shades of violet, coral, and fuschia
”Pull out the violet flowers, roots and all, and place them in the empty flower pots over there” Jesse instructed
”Why?” Shaave hian uprooting the flowers resignedly Before, whenever he came here with Jesse, he was only allowed to till, weed, and water Could he consider this progress?
After Jesse saw hi seriously, he turned back down to weed
He thought he'd be rather out of touch with so he hadn't done in over a thousand years But as soon as his hands sank into the dirt, Shamal realized his muscle memory had held firradually settle down
The time flew by quickly
After lunch was dinner Since all the plants that grew here in the warlocks' realm were either poisonous or had a variety of other effects on the body, warlocks developed a strong distaste for vegetables Fortunately, they didn't give him meat
Shamal even snuck a peek at Jesse's bowl and was surprised to see vegetables inside Re what Jesse had said last time, when he was forced to eat meat paste, Shamal suddenly found a new appreciation for the bland and rather unpalatable vegetables in front of him
The sun set
Nikola and the others had already put their tools away and retired
