章 128: Unexpected wings

An uneasy tension lingered between them, as Ellie saw the seriousness in his face and detected it in his voice as well.

"Why do I feel like I won't like what you are about to say?" Ellie questioned, her eyes narrowing with suspicion.

Storm hesitated for a moment before letting out a sigh. "Because you may not like it." he admitted, his gaze intense. "I don't know if you will still feel the same after this."

"I already accepted you as a vampire. What could be worse?" Ellie furrowed her brows, her curiosity tinged with anxiety.

In response, Storm slowly began to unbutton his shirt, each movement deliberate. A serious expression etched across his face, his eyes never leaving Ellie's.

As his shirt fell to the ground, Ellie's breath caught in her throat. His dark grey eyes were now a deep shade of crimson, a color she had only seen whenever he was angry. Panic flickered in her eyes as she took a step back.
