Uncovered, In Front of Him

 

Jessamyn grew increasingly confused and restless, her head and chest aching. She took a deep breath to calm herself and approached the window to get her bearings.

The building she was in was made of stone—larger than a villa but smaller than a mansion. The second floor, where she was, had only a few rooms, while the first floor was more expansive.

Surrounded by dense forest, the house seemed isolated. If they were near the outskirts of Elodia, Mount Lumina should have been visible, but the tall trees obscured the view.

Jerrick had always preferred the sight of greenery. In Roche, he was surrounded by forest. His unusual interest in plants and trees was apparent even back then, and his love for nature was reflected in his eyes.

His eyes are beautifully green like the forest he loves.
