Liam froze, his reaction so evident that Grace shot a questioning look at him. It seemed only he had heard the Demoness' whisper, but that didn't make the matter any less concerning.
After Dominic, Liam had achieved full control over the Primal Urge, but he had still hissed plenty of times against Jessica. It felt natural to do so. He had even started to do it without the demonic art's influence, but that remained a clue for those in the know.
Liam ignored Grace's look and inspected his surroundings. The Demoness was nowhere to be seen. Even her boundless presence had vanished completely, but the audience had remained. It had kept even more distance after the leafing expert's arrival, but it had witnessed Liam's fight nonetheless.
'How many heard me?' Liam wondered. 'How many can connect that to my lineage? Should I kill everyone just to be safe?'
