Abaddon's wings stretched wide, casting an imposing shadow over them. His crimson eyes burned with amusement as he observed them.
Leiza screamed involuntarily, watching the terrifying creature that appeared in front of her eyes.
She instinctively grabbed onto Azzy's arm, her fingers almost trying to dig into him as she trembled. "What in the hell is going on?!"
Abaddon grinned, his sharp fangs barely visible as he tilted his head. "You thought you could fool me by suppressing your strength?" he mused, his voice smooth yet dripping with malice. "Your divine essence is a dead giveaway."
Azzy's expression remained cold and unreadable. He instinctively placed himself in front of Leiza, shielding her from Abaddon's gaze.
"She has nothing to do with this," Azzy said calmly. "Let her go."
Abaddon's grin widened. "An angel forming a close bond with a human? How… fascinating."
His piercing eyes locked onto Leiza, who was visibly trembling behind Azzy.
