Matchmaker Aksai
Siya's eyes were practically burning holes through Aksai.
If looks could kill, Aksai would've been a charred husk by now.
She wanted to scream, to lash out, but the restrictive runes sealing her mouth kept her from doing more than shooting daggers with her gaze.
What right did Aksai have to even suggest such a thing? she fumed internally.
Haitin, while still surprised, processed the idea quickly. He wasn't a man driven by extreme emotions, especially when it came to matters like these.
He was practical, and Aksai's suggestion, though unexpected, wasn't entirely off the mark. In fact, it made sense from a strategic point of view.
"I… didn't consider that option," Haitin admitted after a pause. His mind raced through the implications.
A marriage alliance with the Sun Ocean Lord's daughter would create a powerful link between the demonic faction and one of the most formidable Core Formation Lords.
