BLACK RAIN AND DARK SKY (4)

"Come with me and I will give you the world you want. Come with me and none of them will get hurt. Come with me and everything that you don't need to feel the pain." Decratic stretched out his hand again for Iris to take. His red eyes showed obsession. "You don't want to see what I can do in this lifetime too, Na."

Iris stared at Decratic stretched out hand and took it. By this time, Zale's face had turned very red and Aliana almost lost her consciousness, but she still tried to shake her head, indicating for Iris not to do that. 

In a long run, Cane's plan to involve the Serafim and the Holy Kingdom in order to protect Iris was right. No matter how many warriors he put around her, it wouldn't work, when the creature they faced was Decratic. 

As shifter, they didn't have the capacity to counter the dark magic power that Decratic held. This instance was the perfect example for what Cane worried the most.
