[Bonus chapter] Nerio's Truth
Alrakis stared at Taiyi incredulously. When he saw Nerio in front of them, even he couldn't believe his eyes. It was as if he had resurrected from the dead. But the way he behaved and spoke with them, he had no doubts that it was Nerio. Ever since Taiyi had told him about Nerio, all he wanted was to capture him and kill him slowly and painfully, making him bear each and every pain that he had inflicted on his mate and wife. The mere name 'Nerio' would fill him with angst and boundless rage.
He was behind Nerio when he talked to Taiyi. Nerio was tumbling down. Alrakis dashed the dolphin after him. And to his wild surprise he saw that Nerio had closed his eyes and his face was twisted in pain. Yet another chunk of hair turned white. He was holding the saddlebag tightly as if it contained some treasure.
