"Seriously? The Merlin Containment? That's literally Anti-Spell 101! I learnt how to combat that back when I was feeding off the anger of sliced golf shots!"
Once I regained my breath, I shrugged.
"So then leave the circle."
She did an admirable job of not showing any emotion as she laughed.
"No, no, I like it here."
I assumed she was captured and that I was safe.
I assumed incorrectly.
