The moment felt like a dream to me.
It happened so fast that I couldn't register exactly how it happened but being in Damar's arms, seeing him protect me even at the expense of exposing himself, I couldn't help but get emotional and shed more tears.
Damar's tail coiled around me like a protective shield, trying to soothe me, even as I cried.
He probably assumed I was crying because of Kaelor so his anger grew even more livid.
"You..." Kaelor, who regained himself quicker than an average beastman, stood to his feet, a bit shaky but he was on his feet.
He stared at Damar with blood red eyes, his anger baring fangs and his body ready to lunge at him.
But when he saw me right by his side, sniffing and sobbing, he paused.
He couldn't attack while I was there, because then I might get caught in the crossfire. Worse, the vile snake that took me 'hostage?' could use me as a shield to control him.
