Chapter 350 - Pressure
Chapter 350 - Pressure
Garestsa kept shaking as she heard those things, however, in her mind she still had hope. She knew that Aiden was taking a long time trying to kill her, so she was hoping that the director would come back before she died.
'I-I need to gain time,' she thought with her closed, barely hanging onto life. 'Is there something I can do?'
Garestsa thought for a few seconds as she could still feel the cold metallic blade against her neck.
As she opened her mouth, she was careful, not wanting the dagger to cut her neck even a little. However, Aiden made sure that it would as he applied some pressure at the same time which caused some blood to trickle down her neck.
"I-Is there something I can do, so that you won't kill me?" Garestsa asked as this was the only idea that she had gotten in the short time that she had thought.
She was under so much pressure that it was incredibly hard for her to use her brain to the fullest of its capacities.
Aiden smiled. "So now you beg, huh?"
That was what he had wanted all along, he wanted to hear her will to live. He wanted to know that she wanted to live before finishing her off. That was the only thought that was on Aiden's mind.
He didn't care how long this whole thing would take, he just wanted to her suffer just like he would suffer once the director returned from his talk with Anna.
'Still, I can't take too much time, I need to leave this world before he comes back,' Aiden thought as he knew that if the director came back and froze him in place then he wouldn't be able to do the slightest thing.
If he waited and the director immediately restricted his movements, then there was a good chance that Aiden would either die or be imprisoned somewhere.
'Should I just kill her and run away?' Aiden thought as he knew that this wasn't a good option.
[There is a chance, but if you accept you won't be able to use your
'Do I accept? Is that a good idea?' Aiden thought as he was slowly forgetting about Garestsa which was right under him.
Aiden needed to prepare for his future moves if he was to accept.
He knew that he would be taking a lot of risks by accepting because that would mean that if he were to fail... then he would die for real this time.
'Let me think about it,' Aiden said as he dismissed all that information to the back of his head as he wanted to deal with the person that was right in front of him.
"Sorry about that, now where were we?" Aiden asked as if coming out of a trance, forgetting where he had been.
"You were going to kill me," Garestsa said with a calm tone.
It seemed that this minute or two of thinking had made her a lot more calm. However, the reason as to why she had gathered her calm was simple, the more time Aiden wasted trying to torture her, the more time that it gave to the director to save her.
So, she couldn't be more happy that Aiden was thinking about such things right now.
'Actually, maybe I can threaten him?' She thought.
Putting even more pressure on him seemed to be quite a good idea in her mind as it would make him think even more about his actions. However, she knew that killing wasn't a problem for him, she remembered the look in his eyes when they had a duel against one another.
She remembered how cruel he had been... killing was the last thing that would weight on Aiden's mind right now and she knew about it. Garestsa wanted to do something else, she wanted to put pressure on Aiden's death, what if he were the one that would be dying here?
