Chương 78: Unexpected Visitors - (Storm's Point of View)

"Are you threatening my mate?" Kai growls, eyes turning a glowing gold. I put a calming hand on his arm, giving the two council members a steely look. They must think I am a pushover.

Through all of it, I keep my expression serene, watching them try to hide how affected by my magic they are.
