Chapter 74

  Silas

  I found myself drawn to the outskirts of the city,compelled by a faint yet alluring scent that tickled my senses ever since I went there to talk to Sena.The night air whispered secrets as I moved with the grace of centuries-old instincts,navigating the shadows with an otherworldly elegance.This is how I was,always making myself appear as a ruler.

  I observed from the darkness,a silent observer with eyes that glinted like polished obsidian and stood like a sentinel,the night cloaking my presence in an inky embrace as I surveyed the surroundings with a keen and calculating gaze.

  The diner's windows emanated a warm glow,a stark contrast to the cool darkness that enveloped me.Inside,the soft hum of conversation and the clinking of utensils against plates created a melodic backdrop to the scene.I remained concealed,a mysterious presence lingering at the periphery.
