Chapter 74
- The moment the cameras have turned off, Cielo takes a deep breath and puts her head in her hands. She's mentally and physically drained. This was a rude awakening to the Beast Kingdom. It's insane that something that stems from the Wolfen society has severely impacted Lycans in such a crippling way. She wonders how a Lycan learned about this prohibited practice. It was banned centuries ago and is no longer taught.
- "Hey, are you okay," Cain asks, pulling Cielo into his chest and kissing the top of her head.
- "Just a little overwhelmed," she tells him while Mara whines at her. Mara doesn't like the distress coursing through Cielo. The revelation of the blood oath certainly makes the whole situation more critical. Her biggest fear is Damian lashing out and taking his anger out on the subjects bound to him. He doesn't have to be near them to kill them. If he's been at this for years, then there are a lot more out there who are stuck with him.
