Chapter 130 Nyssa pov I had no idea what was going on, but something at the back of my mind told me that Darius was going to kill this mans if didn't stop him and all because he had asked if I was wolfless. No, it was more than just a question. I wasn't sure what it was, but I knew it went deeper than that, something more, and that was what seemed to trigger Darius. My heart pounded fast and heavy as I watched him.

Despite the emotionless expression etched on his face, it was clear he was angry, and this was the second time I had seen him like this, the first being yesterday with the moon goddess. And though it wasn't as bad as with the goddess, I could still feel the killing intent radiating from him, making me swallow hard. When Darius roared, I instinctively turned to Cassian, hoping he would step in, but Cassian merely sat there and watched, with no intention of interfering.

His expression was cold, lips curved into a slight frown, and as he turned his gaze to the elder, his head tilted just slightly, his eyes blank and emotionless. I blinked at him in surprise, then turned to look at the other elders who were staring at Darius with fear, their eyes darting between him and Gregory, who was writhing on the ground, From their expressions, I knew none of them had any intention of interfering.

In the blink of an eye, I reached out and grabbed his hand, stopping him in place. Almost instantly, the crushing aura he was about to release vanished, dissipating like smoke, and he froze. His gaze snapped to me, and a single word slipped from my lips-soft, almost like a spell as I shook my head at him and murmured. My eyes locked on his, and just like that, I couldn't look away.

It felt as though the whole world had stilled around us. As Darius stared at me with that chilling coldness, my lips moved again, and words I didn't even fully understand slipped out in a breathless whisper. "Don't cause harm to anyone because of me... please, Darius," I murmured, my hand tightening around his Almost instantly, I saw his narrowed eyes widen in surprise, as if my words were so unexpected, so impossible, that he couldn't believe I had spoken them. And then-he called me a name I never thought I would hear from him.
