"I will burn down the entire clan before I let anything get in the way of that," she said, her tone glacial. "So you need to decide. Are you going to hold him back… or are you with him?"
There was a long silence. By now, Renlo's eyes were wide open in shock.
Him? Against Malakai?
'How could that be?'
But from her eyes and tone, Renlo could tell that she was speaking the truth. He clenched his fist so hard his knuckles cracked.
"I-I'm with him." He said.
Nyx's icy gaze didn't change.
"Then stop avoiding him. You're making it seem like he made the wrong decision."
She suddenly turned and made towards the door.
"You're his friend. Your actions unfortunately have the power to make him doubt himself." She glanced towards Renlo from the door, and he felt a cold wave wash over him.
"I will never forgive that."
As Nyx left, Renlo let out a deep breath the moment her oppressive weight vanished.
'She will never stop being scary.'
