Chapter 120
Cassius woke up from a nap feeling hungry. It hadn't been long since he fed from a maid, but with the anger swirling through him, his stomach growled with the need to feed. He got up from the bed and walked towards the window, where he saw Aeris in the garden, looking over the flowers. She was dressed in a yellow tunic and black leggings, her hair flowing back.
He thought of Anastasia, and his heart sank. When will Nerina perform the ritual on her? She might not survive it. He feared he would be too late to save Anastasia.
Cursing under his breath, he clenched his hand into a fist. He tried to control his anger, not wanting to lose control again.
