Kapitel 722: Chapter 72 : A Sea of Stars

“I know the perfect place to watch the meteor shower,” Eros said. “It isn’t too much of a hike into the mountains.”

He led the way and Ashley eagerly followed along with him.

Payne seemed to have a perpetual frown on his lips as he stared after his sister and the stranger.

“Lighten up, Payne,” Soren said, clapping him on the shoulder. “If he steps out of line, at least, we’ll be on a cliff and can throw him off.”

Payne scoffed and went ahead. Though, I caught the slight glimmer of amusement in Payne’s eyes.

I stepped up beside Soren. “You wouldn’t really throw Eros off a cliff, would you?”

Soren shrugged. “It depends on what he does. If he went after you or Ashley, I wouldn’t have a choice.”

“I suppose that’s logical,” I said, nodding.

“Mila, we don’t know anything about him yet. I’ll be on guard until I can determine he isn’t a threat,” he promised me.

I smiled and nodded. His words made me feel much safer about following Eros into the mountains.
