Chapter 36 Seraphina

• Hatred burns in my veins like living fire as I watch Caelum leave the room with heavy steps, the echo reverberating off the walls.
• The door closes with a dull thud, but the sound does nothing to relieve the fury consuming me from within. The urge to scream, to release all the anger storming in my chest, is nearly uncontrollable. I want to destroy everything around me—every stone of this cursed castle, every useless object surrounding us, and especially my mate. The man who dared betray me, who dared raise his hand against me for the sake of a human.
• My throat still burns, throbbing with the memory of Caelum’s brutal touch. The violent act caught me off guard—something I never expected from him. Never, in all the years we’ve been together, had he lost control of his lycan so viscerally, not even before our greatest enemies. Yet now, for some despicable human, he showed a side of himself I had never seen—a side that revealed just how deep the chasm Aria is digging between us truly runs.
