He suddenly grabbed my shoulders, his blood-red eyes flashing with heart-wrenching pain, his once handsome face now twisted into a terrifying mask. "The bond between us is forged from the most intense love between the elven race and the vampires. Only by gradually unraveling it can we attain eternal life together. If it's severed in an instant, it will turn into hatred! If you don't understand, go find Renata..."
As he spoke, he suddenly embraced me. "Our love is a stroke of luck, but... who is trying to sever the bond between us? Margie, you must remember, I love you, but I am your enemy!"
He seemed to be talking to himself, yet also questioning me.
"Lionel, this idea came from Bevis and Rion. I just wanted to save you without considering the consequences!"
What kind of trap is this? Why do I feel like Rion and Bevis have pushed me into a bottomless pit? Maybe they didn't even realize it themselves!
