Chương 174: Strange desire

Cyrus heaved for air and grabbed her wrist as she stood up as if hypnotized. She jerked away, but he stood up, grabbed her hand again and forced her to face him, then grabbed her shoulders, his blue slit eyes peering into her completely dead eyes.

His hands on her shoulders began to glow, and he could feel the barrier behind them crumbling. His eyes glowed darkly, and the glow from his hands on Sage's shoulder began to spread across her body.

The statkus mages had tried to control her numerous times, and in the process, they had cast a restriction spell on her, making it difficult for Cyrus to break their control over her this time. Breaking the statkus mages' control over her meant he had to give her his force of Aleara's snowflake, which he had been doing, only this time he had to give her a lot of it.

"Sage!" He shook her and called through his teeth, attempting to break the spell.
