It was a tense silence where no one spoke anything.
Mostly because both Adam and Eve were doing their best to avoid Lord Dirac's eyes as he glared them down. Elysia was lying in front of them unconscious and her body was a little too pale.
There was also an unnatural flush on her face and somehow the pair had a feeling that lord Dirac knew exactly what had happened to her body.
"You both better start explaining what happened back there to make my sister like this. Otherwise, you both will not be allowed to see Elysia again."
The pair flinched at the threat, not wanting to be separated from Elysia right now. Adam found it especially difficult to let go of his newly mated person as his instincts roared at him to defend her.
But he forced that feeling down as he faced Lord Dirac heads-on.
Or well, he attempted to but one look was enough to force his head down again and make him look ashamed.
