Chapter 47: Emptiness

Surprisingly, his little kitty hadn't shed a single tear when he left her behind in China. By that time, he had trained her well, teaching her to seal away unwanted emotions. A quick learner, Li Na exceeded all his expectations, mastering the art of control. Yet, despite the distance, Kai dearly missed her.

The three years of separation felt like an eternity, and no matter how he tried to fill the void, her absence was a constant ache. Finally, he decided: he would bring her back, keep her with him forever.

Kai was not one to regret his decisions—he prided himself on it. But one choice haunted him: taking Li Na away from China. That single mistake had become a cruel reminder, etched into his soul. It was the cost of loving someone in a world not meant for humans.
