Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 247

"What on earth are you doing?" Dorian snapped sharply, "Come with me."

He grabbed Elysia's arm, but she screamed, "Don't touch me!"

She shook off Dorian's grip, glared at him fiercely, then gave Jessica a look before running out.

Amara had to muster all her strength to keep her anger in check as she chased after Elysia.

But as she reached the door, someone stopped her.

"Don't chase her. Let her cool off for a bit," Finnian said.

Amara paused, Finnian's hand on her arm. She considered rushing after Elysia, but then remembered how Elysia liked to be alone when she was upset. She'd cool down and come back once she was ready. So, she decided not to resist.

Still, she didn't want to be around Finnian right now. Maybe she was just mad at Dorian and was taking it out on Finnian too.

She removed Finnian's hand, turning to leave.
