Adel was exhausted, he didn't want to tell Melissa anything but the fight with Blaze had left him with inside wounds that were still healing, even though the skin outside was back to normal. Adel didn't feel like himself, it was like his encounter with Blaze had somehow altered him, like he had left some poison inside him, and it wasn't able to heal completely.
After everything that he had done, the woman he loved and give his loyalty to had fallen for a human. He could still remember seeing her for the first time, their first kiss, their first intimate encounter, he had felt he under his burning touch and had known that she felt just the same towards him that how he felt towards her.
