Raegar felt the cold being chased away thanks to the four girls cuddling up to him, each one falling asleep apart from the Vampire. After doing that, he turned to Dominique, who was still awake, staring at him with her big green eyes.
''So you're a Necromancer?'' he asked quietly.
A flicker of unease crossed her face, but Raegar quickly dispelled it. ''That was incredible!'' he continued. ''The power you wield is nothing short of extraordinary. I don't understand why your family shuns it. Necromancy is fascinating, and Death Aether? It's like nothing I've ever seen, wild and mysterious in all the best ways.''
Dominique's face froze in genuine shock, her eyes widening as a flush of surprise chased away her earlier unease. The sudden shift in her expression drew a soft chuckle from him, his amusement warming the chilly air.
