Covering her face properly, she stepped away from Cian, keeping a distance between them. Her eyes showed wariness towards him as he had now seen her face.
"I hope we won't cross paths again," she said, her tone curt, and turned to leave without waiting for Cian's reply.
She signaled her people to continue their work and finish it, while she departed with a few of her companions following closely behind. She didn't even offer a word of gratitude for him saving her life once more.
Cian could sense drastic shift in her demenaour and her clear displeasure at having her face revealed to him. It seemed as though she was trying to distance herself as much as possible.
She must be someone whose identity could not be revealed at any cost.
Cian signaled to his own people and departed as well, his mind still grappling with the mystery of the woman's identity.
