Chapter 46

It's getting lighter in the room, the purple-gray of an overcast morning leaking around the edges of the curtains, mixing with the gentle glow of paths on Notorodanaus' wings to bathe him in exactly the sort of pre-dawn gloom.

Notorodanaus looks tired but happy, the exhausted attitude contrasting with the smile lines etched into his face. He's sitting cross-legged on the large table, thumbing through a article about some collector in newspaper and second article in website. Stacks of hardcovers, old newspaper and paperbacks surround him, all in precarious piles, like a tiny book fort.

" Internet can be very useful. " He thought as looks at the screen of tablet framed by his hands. After his few fruitless searched Théâtre du Coeur, he decided to change the a way to search.

Ten minutes pass, and then Notorodanaus' face change. His expression was a cross between " Oh yeah, baby" and " Come on! "

" New York…" He read it again and put tablet down.

That's problem.

Object what he needed is in New York. And he can't get there…

He looked up at the cracked ceiling wondering how he would solve this problem.

Then he remembered something relevant. A few seconds later, he exited the room and carried on to the nearby room.

There was a couple empty beds in the room and four beds occupied by sleeping people. Notorodanaus came to bed in the corner of room where Lila Rossi was sleeping.

" It's time to make yourself useful. " His voice has no tone.

Notorodanaus use his wings to cuts his index fingers. He closes his eyes, and draws a blood sigil on Lila face.

The sigil on Lila's face turns blue and covers her face in bright veins. After few seconds veines start fading until disappear.

Then Lila open her eyes, they looked like two silver moons under a cloudless sky.

" Now, Lila, I have a job for you. " Notorodanaus smile " A very special job."

…Next day…

Lila smiled as she walked into the Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport.

She watched the buzz of activity happening in front of him. People were everywhere. Employees doing their job, the passengers who waiting or got off the plane, and she could see few muscular security watching all people.

But none of them paid much attention to her.

This might seem weird. Because face of Lila Rossi was on the list of missing-persons lists on airport security office.

However, she didn't look like the one girl police're looking for.

Now she has long, curly dark rose red hair. Her stark blue eyes contrast her skin. As for her makeup, she is seen in pink eye shadow and dark pink lipstick. She wore a simple blue dress with a dark purple jacket with the sleeves rolled up, a yellow belt with matching bracelets and dark purple boots. She also has black-rimmed sunglasses on her head.

Nobody would think that girl is Lila Rossi. So, she slowly was moving towards the line to security check- all without problems.

The line move quickly, and she approached the security check.

" Next." said the middle-aged woman at the security check.

" Are you travelling for business or private reasons? " the woman asked Lila, taking her boarding pass and passport from her.

" I'm just going to visit my older brother and meet my new nephew, Hillary. " Her eyes was honest and nice.

" What's your name?"

" Silia Lors. " She answered, smiling politely.

" And where are you going today, Miss Silia ?"

" Manhattan. New York. "

"All right. Go on," the woman waved her through. "Have a nice flight."

" Thank you, you have a good day. "

A half hour later, Lila looking out of a window, watching a Paris decreases with each passing second.

Her phone made soft ping, she smiled as reading message with instructions.

Her eyes again looked like two silver moons.
