"This was made on Lady Elara's demand. You can take any seats you like and read your book." Vanessa uttered only a few words and took a seat for herself, saying, "For now, you will only have to try to focus on your book without letting your mind wander around.""
'Reading a book without getting distracted would help me with my thirst for blood? Seriously, how difficult can this be?'
Alvin shook his head, but he had agreed to follow her words without complaint, so with a resigned sigh, he walked up to the seat behind Vanessa and sat down.
He looked back and saw that Vanessa had already started flipping through the pages of her book.
Turning back, he carefully assessed the book in his hands. The cover was nothing special, just some words on a dark background, like a typical fantasy book, but in reality it was a history book.
His fingers moved, and he started flipping through the pages like he was not reading but skipping through it. Alvin paused and groaned inwardly.
