His magnetic and deep voice echoed from the recording, “I promise I will never appear before you again after our agreement expires.”
Lucinda sat on the floor, leaning against the edge of the bed, tears welling up in her eyes as she listened.
He had disappeared forever before the end of their contract.
She hadn’t even had the chance to say goodbye.

As soon as Cyrus had returned from Stastle, he had heard about it.
