Ajax and Laxus came running as soon as they realised that there was something amiss. Their instincts had been top-notch from the day he had met them. Laxus frowned at him but wisely stayed quiet without asking Killian to calm down. Because at that moment, Killian knew that there was no way he would be able to control his anger.
"Stay back," he warned the two men. If they tried to stop him now, they might end up getting caught in the fray.
Laxus stepped forward, but Ajax caught him by the back of his collar and pulled him back. A smart move, truly.
Dominance rolled off him like a wild tornado, swirling around as if determined to raze everything in his path. It silenced the crowd, sending a wave of anxiety through the entire banquet hall, cutting off the music and the soft murmur of the shifters.
