Chapter 20
Boom... Boom!
Thunder echoed all around.
"Ah!"
For a moment, my fingers stung. It felt like I’d been pricked by a thorn.
"Livia."
Leto grabbed my hand. He examined it and sighed.
"Your hand is a mess—mud, rain, and blood."
He was right. It was covered with cuts I hadn’t noticed before. My skin was particularly delicate.
The rain had turned into a downpour. It was so heavy it was hard to see anything. But I couldn’t turn back now.
"I’m fine."
I resumed searching through the bushes. My fingertips stung. The recent wound must have been deep.
Leto, drenched like me, stood deep in thought. Eventually, he grabbed my hand.
"We can't keep going. It's been hours."
"Just a little more."
"Let’s go back to the carriage. If we stay out here, you’ll get sick. The sun will set soon."
There was still a lot to search. The Indigo could be just ahead.
"Then, you go back first. I need to keep looking until sunset."@@novelbin@@
Leto looked slightly annoyed. He swallowed his emotions and spoke again.
"...I mean you might get sick."
"I’m fine—"
"Stop saying you're fine, please."
- Trust me. I’ll never let you be lonely.
What do you think?
