Chapter 124 – Demon
"Right now, I am just a vengeful little brother, my dear," Kaden said, voice low and cold as he looked at the terrified Selene who wanted nothing more than to run, to flee, to crawl away from him like her life depended on it—because it did.
The moment she heard those words, something inside her snapped, a broken mind trying to rearrange its fragmented pieces in order to make sense of it all.
Vengeful little brother… Death Envoy… Child of Blood…
You didn't need to be particularly smart to figure it out now.
"I-It was you… you are the Envoy of Death… you saved Daela…?" she asked, her voice trembling so hard it couldn't even form a full sentence without shattering midway, each word falling like fractured glass.
And then, it clicked.
Her pupils shrank as she realized it…she had been played.
No, they had been played.
