The woman remained silent for a long moment before she turned and started walking away. "Stick around. Maybe after everything is over, I can bring you along with me." Her form blurred at the edges, swallowed by shadow. A heartbeat later, she was gone.
Damon exhaled slowly. He leaned against the wall, crimson eyes narrowing at the empty alley where she had vanished. "After everything is over, huh? Sounds like this auction really is going to be fun."
He waited for a couple of minutes. Then, with a casual roll of his shoulders, he stepped out of the alley, once again heading in the same direction. The woman had only asked him not to interfere in their affairs. She did not say anything about attending the auction itself.
He followed the red lanterns in Stealth and arrived at the location in no time. "1 gold coin to enter." The demon brute at the entrance blocked his path.
