Chapter 32: What Happened to Dillon

Lowell and I were taken aback. I'm not sure if he heard everything we said, but he seemed serious and concerned at the same time.

"Where is Gurion?" I asked nervously, hoping to lighten his mood.

"Acwulf took him for a stroll," he replied, clenching his jaws and holding his temper.

"How much did you hear?" I inquired.

"Since he confessed his feelings," he said, looking away insecurely.

So technically, he had heard everything. I felt bad, but it was his fault for listening in on our conversation.

"Are you possibly jealous?" I wondered.

"Would you be upset if I was?" he asked.

"Nope—it's natural to feel jealous from time to time; I can even feel jealous; I just don't show it to anyone," I replied honestly, smiling at him to cheer him up.

He sat beside me, holding my hand and resting his head on my shoulder.

"Is there a reason you're going there?" He asked as he pushed me onto the bed and hugged me tightly.
