Alexander could finally see how much his friend was suffocating and how much he was suffering alone, bearing the consequences of something that he didn’t even want in the first place.
However, he was having a hard time fully understanding his friend because he didn’t know a lot of things. He didn’t even know what his friend was, to begin with. He just knew that his friend wasn’t a vampire like his brother-in-law, but was something with similar speed and strength.
And although he didn’t mean to ask, he subconsciously voiced out his thought, “Just what are you, Eve? What happened to you? How did you suddenly turn into that thing? Did someone do something to you that made you the way you are?”
In his absentmindedness, Everard also answered his friend with full honesty, “You know how much I liked your sister, right? I still do. And when I heard that she was sent to Sorvando to be married to the King, I couldn’t bear to just let her go.”
