As the darkness that was surrounding Sebastian's body slowly subsided, Elle's heart swelled with utter relief. She had been so afraid. Afraid that the darkness or whatever this powerful energy shrouding her beloved would consume him completely. But now, as he held her face in his hands, she could see the light returning to his eyes.

"Iza!" he exclaimed in a hoarse voice, utter shock and myriads of other emotions were whirling within the depths of his eyes. And without warning, he pulled her into a tight embrace, holding her close as if he was planning to never let go of her ever again.
