Chapter 418:

“It was never my intention. Giving you your freedom was the only decision I could make then. Letting whatever we had between us continue… it was ill-advised for so many reasons.” His tone was overflowing with remorse.

“I’m soulless, Aekeira. That alone made it impossible. I’m also on a highway to madness, another reason. And you… you are human. You are not Syren. Even if I had my soul, it’s not possible for a bond to take place between us. When Daemon offered to set you free, I thought it was best.”

“Now, I regret that decision more than anything. I sent you away so you would not see me go feral, but when it came down to it, you were all I wanted by my side.
