"Rees… Rees! Listen to me once, please!" Thea ran behind fuming Rees, who took long strides in an unknown direction.
Ruth's words and the distrust in her eyes had sliced his heart deeply. He was very upset and didn't know what to do.
~"Talk to her and this time, don't lie."~ Edwin reached to him through the mind link that they shared and then Rees sensed Edwin blocking his mind link.
Rees was not sure what he wanted to do at that moment but he trusted his master wholeheartedly.
After reaching a secluded place, he abruptly stopped. Thea panted loudly to catch her breath but was relieved that at least he stopped.
After a couple of deep breaths, Thea wiped her eyes with the back of her hand then gulped down her saliva. She slowly approached Rees tasting the waters.
"Will you… will you believe me if I say I am sorry and I didn't mean what I said that day?"
Rees heard her heart pounding loudly in her chest and he could feel the turmoil of emotions that she had in her heart.
