Capítulo 286: Chapter 14 - Raining Conflicts

Something bad had happened to him.

It wasn't something she had seen or something she had heard, it was something she could just feel in the depths of her stomach.

It was a knot that twisted unpleasantly there and made her hands tremble as she flung her quilt aside and pulled her robe around her. She quickly headed out of the room, forgetting to bring the gem with her.

Panic coursed through her veins and she jumped in her skin when she came across a man in the darkness of the hallway. Raindrops hung to the strands of his silver, his black leather glistering with it.

The storm outside raged on. Thunder clapped and lightning flashed, then she saw his face, dripping with raindrops, his wet hair tucked behind his ears, a few strands falling over his forehead.

Relief eased the stiffness in her shoulders.
