Chương 21: †RABBIT†

"What is it?" Aria whispered, her voice barely audible, she scanned the horizon with a mix of curiosity and anticipation.

She couldn't see anything, but that rustling sound was sending shivers down her spine.

Ryan's eyes remained fixed, his expression tense and his jaw clenched.

"I don't know," he whispered back, his eyes narrowing in concentration.

Just as they held their breath, a fluffy rabbit walked out from the bush, its little paws twitching.

Aria exhaled, relief washing over her like a soothing balm. "A rabbit?" she whispered, amusement dancing in her voice as she gazed at the rabbit's big, beautiful eyes. She couldn't help but awwn at its adorable twitching nose.

Although Ryan was seeing the rabbit, he remained tense, his eyes scanning the rabbit, ensuring it was harmless.

"Let's not drop our guard," Ryan whispered to Aria cautious.
