Chapter 585: Icyrians

"About my offer, is your answer still a 'no'?" he asked her seriously. He needed to show her how serious he was in order to get the message across to her that he was not playing around on this.

Vera looked at him and saw that look in his eyes again. She barely had any time to even think about his offer during the past few days of their self-confinement here. But she still managed to think about this, every time she had the chance, whatever little time that was available to her.

When he first told her about this, Vera was so certain that her answer would be 'no' and that it would not change no matter how long the time he had given to her to think about it. She could never, ever, want to do that to him. But the longer she thought over it and as the memories she saw in the future flashed through her mind, Vera's decision began to waver. She found herself genuinely considering his proposition even if she felt that she should not do so.
