Burn: The Last Witness (part 9)

(The Midnight Hunt)
*It's been so many centuries since they first fell in love while her marriage faltered during her attempt at curing the 9th plague. Burn was her head of security, the man who kept her lab safe from the growing throng of Devoted that gathered so close, and many a night found them both trying desperate to keep things going just a day longer. It was then their passion grew and grew and though she had to try and kill him...to keep her position as a Corner of Midnight...and though he barely survived, they both have put that in the past. He will kill her, doing as she said and starting the process of going after the Old One, but Burn can't resist. He has to grab her for one last kiss [AI Art]*
