Chapter 76

• KYLE’S POV
• The moment Nadia's sharp gaze locked onto mine, a jolt of shock surged through me. It took everything in me to keep my expression neutral, but the sheer intensity of her knowing stare threatened to crack my composure. My mind raced—how had she recognized me? Korvus was supposed to be the most powerful sorcerer; his spell should have been perfect.
• Then my eyes flickered to Kelilah. She was still watching me, her masked face unreadable, but I could feel the weight of her attention. I had to mask my reaction before she noticed anything unusual. Swallowing the lump in my throat, I forced a smirk onto my lips.
