Claire cleared her throat. She told Fiona’s mates to wipe the blood off her. Then she picked up a burning torch and slowly walked over.

Fiona stared at her, heart pounding. Claire’s eyes looked too bright. The smile on her face felt strange. And that torch… even from a distance, she could feel the heat.

Alarm bells went off in Fiona’s head. Panic hit her, and she struggled weakly.

That ugly bitch had to be taking this chance to get revenge. She was going to burn her alive!

Claire spoke in a cold voice, “You two–hold her hands. Don’t let her move.”

The two mates nearby quickly grabbed Fiona and pinned her down.

The others gathered again, watching closely. Everyone was curious, but no one dared to speak.

Hazel felt her heart shake. She worried about her daughter, but she was also afraid Claire might go too far.

Elodie’s cloudy eyes lit up. From what Claire had said, Fiona was just having an allergic reaction. It wasn’t serious. But the treatment Claire mentioned? She had never heard of it.

The only one truly calm was Zane. He stood there like a rock.

Claire walked up to Fiona and brought the torch close to her skin.

Fiona screamed, “Don’t!”

The flame was almost touching her. Claire really dared to do this in front of everyone? She had to be crazy!

What a lunatic!

Even if I died, I’d never forgive Claire!

But the burning she expected never came.

All Fiona felt was heat on her skin. When she opened her tightly shut eyes, she saw the torch hovering about half an inch away. The flame warmed the patch that had been itching like crazy.

It felt strange.

In an instant, the itching faded.

“It’s not itchy… that’s so weird…” Fiona muttered.
