***Duke Magnus***
I stood there watching Cadiz breathe heavily in Raizel's arms, and despite the fact that most of my own magical power had just been drained from my body, I couldn't stop the excitement that was building in my chest.
Because this was it.
This was what my forefathers had died trying to see, what generations of Ashfordes had worked toward without ever witnessing the fruits of their labor.
The power of a true Null Omega, raw and uncontrolled and absolutely devastating in its purity.
Cadiz had nearly killed us all just now.
If Raizel hadn't managed to calm him down, if those emotions had spiraled just a bit further out of control, we would all be nothing but bones and dust scattered across this council chamber.
The thought should have terrified me, probably would have terrified any sensible person, but instead it filled me with a fierce satisfaction that made my hands tremble.
