When they arrived at the site of the C-rank Gate they were supposed to raid, Damien's eyes were still on Lane. He might not have neglected his search among the Guides, but… Despite Lane's efforts, the man's suspicion was only growing.
The danger was real, hanging in the air, and sinking through Lane's skin, all the way deep into his bones. It was far more menacing than any dungeon could ever be… But also incredibly electrifying. Lane was constantly on edge, his mixed feelings tingling him from inside, tickling like a feather, until he could barely contain himself, wanting nothing more than to just roll around or shoot high up into the air.
And above all, he wanted to grab Damien, and chain him to the bed, taking revenge on him by teasing him until he could do nothing but tear his throat out screaming Lane's name.
But he couldn't. And it frustrated him so much that he thought he might go insane.
