Lilith's blood froze as Alex stood before her, death energy oozing from his body like an endless abyss. The mere pressure of it made her body tremble, her vampiric instincts screaming in terror.
In her mind, she cried out.
'Nyx… what is this power? I've never seen anything like it before!'
The primordial's voice echoed back, sharp and shaken.
[ That power… it is not one mortals—or even gods—can wield except one. That is death energy, Lilith. A power none can command except Hades, the God of Death himself. ]
Nyx's voice wavered.
[ It does not merely destroy. It erases existence itself. ]
A shiver ran down Lilith's spine. She could not believe it. A boy her age wielding a force even she—chosen avatar of Nyx—couldn't touch.
But as her body quaked, she smirked through the fear.
