Her nails dug into his skin as she struggled for air, but Adrian did not budge. His expression was empty, almost lifeless, as though the man standing before her had long since ceased to be her son.
"Thank you," Adrian said, his voice eerily calm. "Thank you for making this so easy for me."
As the words left his mouth, his claws slowly elongated.
Jane's eyes widened in horror.
She tried to speak, to call his name one last time, but only broken sounds escaped her lips.
Without another moment of hesitation, Adrian drove his claws into her neck.
Blood splattered across his face and clothes as his claws sank deep into her flesh. Queen Jane cried out in pain, the sound echoing throughout the royal chambers. She clawed frantically at Adrian's arm, her legs kicking weakly against the floor as she fought for her life.
Adrian simply watched her struggle, Relishing on her suffering.
