Aren stared at Yilan, who looked as if she were about to burst into tears from sheer frustration, the aura around him growing even colder.
"I no longer have anything to do with the Succubus Clan," he said coldly. "And I am no longer your brother."
"You..." Yilan gasped, shocked by how ruthless Aren was being. She couldn't believe he was disowning her, his own sister.
"Brother... how could you... how could you say something like that?" She looked at him, utterly heartbroken. Heavy tears spilled over her cheeks, making her look incredibly pitiful.
Seeing that things had gone far enough, Rory reached out and gently tugged on Aren's sleeve.
Aren immediately turned his gaze toward her, his voice softening instantly. "What is it, my female master?"
Rory spoke to him gently, "Yilan only came to see you out of goodwill. Don't be so harsh."
