An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

Arion’s sudden appearance caught everyone off guard. They stared, wide- eyed and slack-jawed.

What was going on? Wasn’t Arion already dead? How could he be standing there in front of them? Could it be a ghost?

They exchanged baffled looks, and their faces were filled with disbelief. They couldn’t make sense of it. How could Arion possibly be alive? It was beyond their comprehension.

“You… you’re not dead?”

No one was more shocked than Willem.

After all his effort, he had finally found the chance to bite into Arion’s neck and drain every drop of his blood.

He was certain Arion had died-there was no way he could have survived. But if Arion was dead, who was this person standing before them?

“Everyone, calm down!” Bailey spoke up. “Arion’s body is still over there. This person must be an imposter.”

At his words, everyone turned to look at the corpse lying nearby.

Bailey was right. The body was still there, and there was no way Arion could still be alive. So, the person in front of them had to be an imposter and was trying to intimidate them.

“A body?” Arion suddenly laughed, his eyes glinting with amusement. “To be honest, that was just one of my Papercraft Clones. I was just having a little fun. Did you seriously think it was real?”

“Papercraft Clone?” Bailey frowned. ” Cut the crap. Do you think you can scare us with just a few words? Dream on!”
