Chapter 39: Marriage, huh?

"Are you alright? You've been sulking ever since that night."

I raised my gaze and my eyes instantly landed on Ivo, sitting from across from me in the dining hall of the inn we were currently staying at. On his right was Kieran, then Cyran on his left. On the end of the table was Winter, and on the other end was Tito. 

They had all their eyes on me while I let out a shallow breath. It had been two weeks ever since that incident and we continued on our journey back to Ronmin Empire. But ever since that encounter with the vampires, there were times I would sulk like this morning. 

I wasn't still close to them, but they often joined me during meals. Sometimes, we would talk, but I usually zone out. Not because of the memory when they burned the vampires in the woods that night, or the revelation of being a sacrificial lamb. My concern was something else.
