Chapitre 485: Elia

GAHRYE

Gahrye sighed. Already impatient with laying there in the grass when they needed to get getting Elia to the Portal, but knowing Eve was helping his body heal, he made himself wait patiently. 

Then a tear from Kalle's pretty cheek splashed into his hair. He reached for her hand and she gave it and he kissed her knuckles. 

They sat together until finally Eve sat back on her heels and said, "Okay, I think that'll keep you. You should take those stitches out in three or four hours at the most."

Then both women helped him first sit up—feeling a little dizzy until he took a few breaths—the finally get to his feet.

As soon as he was certain he wouldn't fall, he pulled Kalle into his chest and they held each other. "That was so scary," she said into his chest.

He gripped her back and squeezed as much as he could without making his wound hurt too much.
