Alex, for the first time in his life—this life—felt humiliated.
To tell the truth, it didn't feel anything like he thought it would.
He always thought that it wouldn't matter to him no matter what others said, but today, when he heard Seraphyna's words, he knew that he wasn't immune to other people's views.
He realized that his ego—which, after awakening the incubus bloodline, had reached very high—wouldn't let even the slightest disrespect against himself go scott-free.
The moment he heard her words, he was first shocked, not sure if he heard it right, but after he came back to his senses, he felt a burning sensation in his cheek.
It was as if he had been slapped hard across his cheek, and that too in front of so many people.
*Clench*
He clenched his fists, trying to calm down his nerves.
He didn't want this event to cloud his decision, yet he found his feet moving toward Seraphyra without a stop.
