“Maria told me you brought this thing here to cast a spell and make her lose the baby. I didn’t want to believe her, but now I see it’s true. If you’re willing to harm her, how could you care about anyone else?”

“Isn’t it true that Romani blood can cure all sicknesses? Then, even if she drains all your blood today, I won’t stop her!”

He dragged me into the operating room like I was garbage and threw me down in front of the doctors.

“Take as much blood as Maria wants. Just make sure she doesn’t die.”

I was tied to the bed, unable to move. Sadly for me, I couldn’t do anything other than watch it as the blood bags filled up one by one. Not long after that, I started to feel cold and my heart was beating more slowly. I wondered if I might really die in this place.

Just then, Maria walked into the room. She looked surprised to see me still conscious. With a smug smile, she handed the full bags of my blood to the doctor.

“Take them now and run your tests while they’re still fresh.”

After that, she turned to me and looked straight into my eyes.

She asked me mockingly, “So, how does it feel to lose your grandmother and your child?”
