Bab 265: Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity

Dahlia couldn't believe it the moment she set her eyes on Zoran. He was really there. He was no longer far away from her. Oh, she just wanted to run to him and hug him with how badly she missed him. It had been so long since she last saw Zoran inside her bedchamber, and for many nights, she waited for him to visit her again only for him to never do so.

She was so utterly worried about him that there were nights where she would quietly sob thinking that something bad had already happened to him. But now, he was here, and all throughout the execution, her eyes never left his visage, afraid that if she ever tore her gaze away from him, then he would disappear on her yet again.

Dahlia didn't even notice Nimue scream as he was eaten alive inside the Cage of Death. She only felt herself being snapped away from her trance when Zoran answered Nikolai's question on why he returned.
