Bab 140: Derek's Son?!

Alice's confusion didn't rest easily but with time, she managed to tame her emotions strongly. There was a sense of hesitation that crawled but nevertheless, Alice knew that these feelings are seemingly to be forbidden. 

'I must be overthinking.' With this thought, Alice drifted back to her deep slumber, waiting until the next morning to rise and to cross the new hurdles on their path. 

.... 

NEXT MORNING

The next morning was beautiful as always. Alice opened her eyes, to find the sunshine coming from outside. When Alice got up, she adjusted her clothes properly. Afterwards, she unzipped the tent from inside to find that the rest of the soldiers of the troop were already awake, ready. 

Stepping out from the tent, Alice saw each one, as Cyrus walked by her side. "Good morning. I hope you had a nice sleep last night." 

"I was fine. What about you guys?" she inquired about the rest with the same concern and fluffy smile.
