"Interesting. Are you going to kill me because of a human?" Morpheus managed to speak, trying to remain composed despite the pain spreading from his neck. "You might be stronger, but I'm not going down without a fight. If I were to resist, that kid might end up needing to reconstruct not just your chamber but your entire palace."
Morpheus did not strike back, not because he couldn't but because he felt this was enough.
'Enough… for now…'
Seeing the anger in those red eyes, Morpheus felt a small satisfaction. Next time, it wouldn't be mere words. What the shapeshifter had in mind was not only physical punishment, but one that would stab straight into Draven's cold heart.
Soon, Draven would have a taste of the suffering Morpheus had suffered after losing his loved ones.
"Stay away from her," Draven warned.
But Morpheus only found his reaction more and more amusing. "After seeing you like this, how could I?"
