He remained in that position for a few moments, both hands resting at his sides. When he opened his eyes, his amber gaze deepened. His pupils dilated, turning vertical.
"…I'm coming for you, my angel."
His whispering voice filled the air. The tattoos on his body, which had faintly glowed gold, gradually dimmed.
