Chapter 293: Silent Takeout (1)

He had just returned from a grueling training day, and his body ached, but the sense of accomplishment and progress filled him with satisfaction. Amber was with him since Benedict had something to do with Martha, so they were currently alone in Erik's room.

The young woman has now "officially" become Erik's girlfriend. Of course, they didn't tell the others about their relationship, but some of them had suspicions, especially Gwen and her keen eyes.

The young woman curled beside him as she saw him slumping on the bed, resting her head on his chest. Her presence brought the young man comfort like nothing else. Her soft touch and gentle embrace melted away the tension from his body. These past three days, since he killed Hais, have been harsh.
