The first of many of his wrongs, and mayhap the only one that had not been his fault.
And he had been wanted… until his face had emerged.
And that was the beginning of his story… which had landed him here.
On another Decembers eve.
As with a newly born young, he had little control over his body.
The Black Dagger Brotherhood was keeping him alive… so that they could kill him.
He could sense the shift within his flesh.
Whateer had been injured had finally healed.
He was back from the foggy landscape of neither-life-nor-death.
Even with his eyes closed, he could not feign unconsciousness forever.
… really worry about is Tohr.
But the name…
Nah, hes tight.
There was a soft scratching sound and then he smelled rich tobacco.
And if he slips up, Ill be there.
The deep voice who had first been speaking got dry.

Since that time, however, there had been a countervailing force that had interceded upon his destiny.
I almost want Tohr to get in here and rip him the f apart.
Hes earned the right.
The Brother Vishous cursed.
And herein was the problem, Xcor thought behind his closed lids.
But he would not sacrifice The Chosen Layla for anyone.
Not even to save himself…
