Chapter 19- Abandoned City

It feels like she's just sleeping in her bed because of the warm that his cloak gives. She woke up at dawn, realizing that his cloak was on top of her.

'Did he really come here and put this on me?' while calculating in her mind on what really happened last night, she starts to brush her hair and fix her dress. After that, she went outside and the others are already preparing themselves. She headed to Phoenix' tent carrying his cloak on her arm.

"Commander Adelard?" she asked while standing outside his tent waiting for his approval for her to come inside.

"Come in." when she entered, Phoenix was changing his clothes. She widened her eyes in utter shock, seeing his eight pack of abs and broad shoulders made her whole body became stiff. Coming back to her senses, she immediately turn around.

"I... I-I'm sorry, Commander Adelard! I didn't know you were changing!" she said while facing her back to him. Phoenix' lips curved as she stutter on her words.
