168: Trailing Secrets - part 1

"Clove, slow down. We are here just to observe today so don't cause..."

To say that Aurora had an awkward smile while running into the two familiar faces would be an underestimation.

"Clove, Quince, it's nice to meet you again.... I should get going now."

Aurora was not running away, she was making a tactical retreat. What was there to be scared about anyway?

And it was not like she was wanted in this company anyway. Quince's eyes were glaring at her to go back and not show her face in front of the pair.

However, it was Clove's eyes Aurora was glued to. The younger girl was staring at Aurora with unseen emotions and her blue-colored crystalline eyes were tinted with a darker tone.

Aurora tried to go around Clove and make a quiet retreat but she was not able to bypass Clove. The younger girl had her arm in the hold which made it difficult for Aurora to move around.
