Serene's POV
A shriek escaped my trembling body seeing the boy collapsed. Everyone jumped out of their seats not believing the scene untangling in front of their eyes. No one had anticipated this to happen so no one was prepared for it. Exactly the reason no one moved until it was too late, except Kilamin.
Being the pessimist that he was, I was sure he had been observing others like a hawk from behind me. No wonder he was the first one to react and kill the boy who dared to attack me. Others might have restrained him but not Kilamin; he had no regard for life when it came to saving one of his own kind. His wings were still wrapped around me protectively as he stood behind me like a guardian angel. I turned around and peeked at him in horror. He was fixated on Vilarja with absolute disgust and revulsion prominent on his face.
