Her Solution

Alora was trying her all. Kaven was smart to see through her and Freya's little game for the truth. Her parents were busy and she couldn't bring herself to visit her grandparents. Her only hope was Arihan and the latter was a strong-headed mule. 

She doesn't even know why Arihan got angry at her. Didn't he try to shoo her away? She just offered the same in exchange for truth. 

She tried to hold on to the last thread of hope and sprinted behind him. Spreading her hands, she tried to hold the door frame on either side but they were far from her reach. 

Arihan: "…"

He glanced at her feet moving to the edge of the stair. Then at her beautiful face. If he was the same young lad, he would have given in to her long ago. His little version was definitely angry at him for troubling her.

"General Darw-" Alora's eyes widened when Arihan disappeared leaving a gush of air.
