【战锤40k同人作品翻译】Ennui 第十七章:满足 Sated(7)
With some reluctance, I stood, pulling out of Isarae’s grip. She let go, but only just, perhaps come to the same conclusion I had as she stood up next to me.
“You’re certain you are alright, Alessandra?” She asked, cautiously reaching out.
I intercepted her hand with mine, drawing it forward and putting it to my cheek. One thing that had changed between us was my suspicion… even until a few hours ago I still wondered if Isarae’s story about her intentions was just that, a story. I wondered if I was being toyed with and strung along, used for some terrible plot against the Imperium.
The moment she had brought me to this chapel, that had faded, and the fear and accusation in her voice when she demanded to know what I was doing to her made it all but vanish.
I leaned into her touch and nodded.
“See?” I gave her a faint smile, “I’m perfectly fine.”
She shook her head.
“I still say that’s not possible,” Isarae insisted. “Do you know what the Thirst is? I drank from the well of your very soul… the effects should have been immediate and terrible.”
