Chapter 1197 ---- "You owe me, Selenia, you owe me!" she grabbed her by the collar with rigid hands. The stench of desperation and death hit Nyx straight on. "I have no strength left. I cto say goodbye, but I can't go on, Nyx... I can't..." she collapsed into the black-haired woman's chest. Her hair, once golden and radiant, had turned dull and brittle. Nyx closed her eyes, swallowing hard, fighting with everything in her to avoid the choice she was about to make.

"I'm going to die anyway..." Bella's mouth answered. It ---- was her voice... but not truly her will. Nyx sighed, ready to risk leaving her body vulnerable. If it were caught by the magical trap set for her, she'd be trapped inside Isabella with no vessel to return to.
She reached toward the witch's chest, looking into her sorrowful eyes, drowning in her dirty conscience... but at the last second, something changed the course.

"Isabella, what have you done?! No, no, no...!" she grabbed her, trying to stop the life pouring from her wounded heart. Her healing magic was about to surge into the wound, but the sorceress stopped her.
"Don't do it... Nyx... I don't have time..." Isabella was holding on with the last of her strength. Fighting like a warrior against Marius's ruthless control over her will.

Nyx held her tight, desperately searching for the spell that linked her to the one controlling her. Where was it?! It couldn't be Zarek, or Victoria! How could someone do something so cruel to Isabella?! But when she touched the forbidden runes on Bella's back and raised her hand glowing with deadly black mist to break the curse-Prince Aidan arrived.
He had followed the vibration of their souls, pushing his body to the edge again and again. His eyes felkon the scene in the clearing, and everything En. he saw looked twisted and horribly wrong. "NYX, STOP!" he roared, seeing her "attacking" Isabella's back as she bled out in her arms.
