Selene POV
Selene suddenly flinched, causing Emily and Celia to turn toward her in surprise. The three of them were still inside Emily's Soul Space, completing the tasks Isaac had asked them.
"What happened? Did something go wrong?" Emily asked, noticing the strange expression on her face.
Celia also looked at her curiously, wondering what had caused such a reaction.
Selene looked at them and opened her mouth, but no words came out. She closed it again before covering her face with both hands, seemingly struggling to believe the information she had just received.
"Isaac just killed Darius, the Fifth Queen's eldest son. And from what I can tell, he didn't even hesitate," she finally said, lowering her hands.
"What?!" Celia exclaimed, staring at her in disbelief. "But why would he do something like that? Isaac wouldn't normally take such a drastic step."
