Chapter 179: Meeting

 With his focus now on Ahi, who looked like she was bracing herself to be scolded by Aakarth, he let out a sigh- his eyes unusually tender while gazing at her, compared to the murderous one just a second ago. 

"Did it hurt?" he asked, with a hurt tone in his voice.

Ahi suddenly gave her signature bright smile, making Aakarth a bit dumbfounded, " Actually, I didn't even know that it was cut until you mentioned it." she replied with a sheepish smile.

Aakarth's eyes softened with Ahi's cute and innocent gesture.

`` This body has already turned numb from external wounds, and.. ' she lifted her pitch black eyes back to him with a soft smile,'- you were late my dearest~' she added with a content look.
