Chapter 1439: Starved

SUMIRE

Waking up in the arms of a certain man made the nightmares she just had vanish. She stares at him, and thinks about what happened the previous night.

'I know he only did that to calm me down, but it was still pleasant.' Doing it with him no longer feels as awkward as it did before. She is definitely more comfortable being touched by him. But, even though she is comfortable with his touches, she is still afraid of being touched by others. Even a simple hug makes her flinch sometimes.

She no longer wants to be this way, especially when she has so many people who care about her. She wants to be able to touch others, and let them touch her without feeling frightened.
