How else would it work?

“Then how?”

“You would drink it.”

Her eyes went wide. “Drink your blood?”

“Yes, Little one. Drink my blood.”

“No.”

“I said to keep an open mind.”

“I am! I don’t want to do it. How does that even work? It’s not going through my blood stream and healing me. It’s just going to go into my stomach and I’ll pee it out.”

It made no sense.

“Are you pulling my leg?” she asked. “Trying to pull a prank on me?”

“No, I’m not. This is how it’s done. I don’t know why or how it works. It’s magic just like this town. It works and you’ll heal within a couple of hours and be able to walk the next day.”

“No, I don’t want to.”

Blood didn’t taste good at all.

“Revna.”

“No, I would rather it take longer to heal. I don’t want to do it.”

“Do you want to be confined to a wheelchair for months and it possibly not work? You’ll miss out on a lot of fun that goes on in this town. You won’t be able to do anything on your feet for half a year or more.”

Her whole body went still. For half a year she wouldn’t be able to dance. Would she be able to survive?

“I don’t know. I don’t think I want to do it.”

“Well, remember how I said I had the ultimate decision? You are going to be doing it.”

CHAPTER FIVE

REVNA

Revna shook her head. “It’s my body.”

“But it’s your health. Sometimes Little girls aren’t in the right mind to make grown up decisions when it comes to their health and safety. This is one of them.”

She stared at him in shock. “You can’t do that!”

“Daddy can and he will.”

Before she knew what was happening, Daddy was carefully helping her sit up and held her close to him. Her face was close to his neck.

“No, you can’t be serious.”

“I’m very serious. I don’t want you hurting any more. It’s going to happen so you can heal and then you can go and play with other people.”

She continued to struggle in his arms. Her leg was screaming at her in pain, but she tried to push that to the back of her mind.

“Daddy is going to cut a little of my neck and you’ll start sucking on it.”
