The eerie incident was shocking—the twitching of the corpse made everyone shudder, and the sight of Mira without a mouth wasn't helping.
Who would have done this? they wondered.
The council members peered at the witch doctor, watching him circle the twitching corpse with Mira's mouthless face glaring like proof that some evil was here. All of it linked to a particular force.
Levi, seated in silence, watched the unnatural spasms and knew immediately something was wrong. The twitching wasn't normal—it meant only one thing. The corpse was being conjured up. Oh no… the witch doctor was waking it.
But Levi's bloodline didn't lie—he knew this wasn't an ordinary witch doctor. He was a necromancer.
Closing his eyes, the so-called doctor began pacing around the corpse, gripping a necklace tightly in his fist.

Kayden's sharp eyes caught it. A man clutching a necklace and pacing—wasn't that spell-casting? Or was he just putting on a show? A fraud?
