"...So it can't be delayed now, or we do not know when that thing from the demon realm would reach Oriana," Evanthe said.
"Are you certain a bond between them can stop the unfortunate from happening?" Draven asked.
"For now, that is the only way we can think of," Sierra spoke. "Didn't the bond between you and Ember help stabilize the core of her dangerous hellfire to some extent? The hellfire is the most dangerous and can't be controlled, but bonding with a divine beast helped her. Then what more is this blood pact made in the demon realm?"
"Then we shall have a marking ceremony as soon as possible since it can't be delayed," Draven declared and turned to Arlan, "Prince Arlan, you might have to take your beast side take control over you so you would carry out everything needed with ease. In the end it's the beast side that knows best what to do when you are about to mark your mate, just like how you know what to do when humans male marries human female."
