Bab 174: [Brightest Star] [4]

"....What are you?"

She asked, tilting her head, her eyes blinking in astonishment as she stared at the wings.

"....."

I just looked at her, debating whether I should tell her about my lineage or not.

"Let's go."

Now is not the time for me to explain all of it.

My legs moved toward her, the extra weight behind my back made it hard for me to move.

Tiredness also filled my mind because these wings take up a lot of stamina.

Eventually, I stood in front of her, the distinct smell of her body engulfing me.

"Um, Az," she whispered awkwardly as I just stood close to her.

"Don't move much," I instructed, wrapping my hands around her lower waist.

Her skin felt soft under my touch. Her eyes widened, and a stupefied look plastered on her face.

"Az—"

"Stay still, or you'll fall down," I interjected, looking down at her bashful face.
