But Elle did not plan to listen. She was determined to reach Sebastian, to do whatever it took to bring him back to himself.

"The man's totally mindless right now, can't you see?" Gav continued. "There's nothing you can do to snap him out of it." It was obvious Gav did not believe one bit that she could do something. "You might just worsen the situation if you insist on going forward. Worse is, you could die in the blink of an eye."

But Elle refused to believe him. She knew that there had to be a way to reach out to Seb, to snap him out of his trance.

"Sebastian will never hurt me," she said firmly and with confidence, her voice unwavering. She knew that Seb was in a dangerous state, but she had faith that he would never hurt her.

But Gav merely smirked, his expression filled with disbelief. "I think you don't quite understand the situation right now, young lady," he said, his tone patronizing. "Sebastian's a half demon. And right now, he's overcome with the darkness within himself. You think a man who couldn't even recognize his own brother can recognize you through his madness?"

"Seb's not mad!" Elle felt a pang of anger at Gav's words. He was right, of course. Sebastian was clearly in a dangerous state, and she did not truly know if she could reach him.

But she refused to give up. She knew that Seb was in there somewhere, buried within the darkness that had consumed him. And she was determined to find him, to bring him back to himself.

"Maybe not," she said, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "But I have to try. I can't just stand by and watch as the man I love is lost to this darkness."

Gav shook his head. Looking at her like she was going mad too. But Elle did not care what this man thought. All she cared for right now was Sebastian.

Elle took a deep breath as she walked forward, determined to reach Seb and bring him back to himself. She was worried about the fierce fighting between the two brothers and the powerful magic that was swirling around them and she was also concerned about the state of the dungeon itself. She had a sinking feeling that it might collapse at any moment. The amount of power being exuded by the two who were fighting, and the pressure it applied on their surrounding was just too immense.

"Don't say I didn't warn you," Gav said. Despite her fears, Elle did not falter. She approached the brothers with a fierce determination, ignoring Gav's warning.

She walked ahead, struggling against the powerful movements and demonic magic that was blocking her way. She gritted her teeth, afraid that she might not be strong enough to even reach Sebastian. The pressure was so great that it was a literal force, like an invisible wall pushing against her and away from the person she wanted to reach. She was like a twig so helpless against a storm. Still, she refused to give up no matter how futile her efforts seemed.

To her surprise, however, her path seemed to be getting cleared up. She whipped around to look behind her back and saw Gav, the terrifying man whom she thought did not have an ounce of humanity in him, was using magic to carve out a path for her.

But his eyes remained cold and heartless. He even looked mad that she did not listen to him or mad at the fact that he was helping a stubborn person like her.

Somehow, she could not help but think that this man was a little adorable.

Swallowing her fear, Elle continued pressing forward, hoping against all hopes that she could reach Seb before it was too late.

As she moved closer to him, she could feel the energy crackling in the air. The darkness around Seb was almost suffocating, threatening to swallow her up.

But she refused to give up. With a fierce determination, she pushed forward, determined to reach Seb. She stretched her arms out, reaching towards him, hoping that she could grab onto him. The pressure of their powers buffeted against her, making her skin sting, turning her fair skin reddish due to the abuse.

Just as Elle was about to touch Sebastian, his power suddenly pulsed, and she braced herself for the possibility of them jumping to another spot in a blur. But thankfully, Zeke grabbed onto Seb and grounded him, holding him in place.

Elle immediately realized that Zeke was giving her a fighting chance, and she did not hesitate even for a second. With a fierce determination, she stepped forward and wrapped her weak arms around Seb's body, which felt like a burning pot of fire.

"Sebastian!" she cried out, her voice filled with emotion. But he did not respond to her calls, his body still consumed by darkness.

So she shouted his name again, tightening her grip around him, squeezing him for all she was worth.

"Seb, I'm here," she said, her voice trembling and filled with tears.

There was no response. Elle felt a surge of fear, wondering if she had been too late, if Seb was lost to the darkness forever.

"I'm here, love. Please stop fighting and look at me." She added, desperate. For a moment, Seb remained still, his body tense and unresponsive. But then, slowly, he began to relax, his breathing slowing down as he finally seemed to recognize her touch.

Elle felt a surge of relief flood through her. She had reached him, somehow. And she knew that she had to keep talking to him, to keep him grounded and connected to reality.

"Sebastian," she whispered, her voice filled with love and tenderness. Her hands also did not stay idle as she rubbed circles into his back, hoping that it would further calm him down. "It's me, your Iza. I'm here, love."

A/N: Hope you enjoyed the mass release guys. I think from here on, I'll do mass releases instead of daily updates. I found it easier for me and I feel like ideas comes out more naturally without the need to force it out everyday. Though this method isn't good for a web and this book might get buried from lack of features soon, I want to do what's easier for me. Hope you guys will understand. TYSM for staying with me until now! <3
