Gia said it almost in one breath.
Her body couldn't help but tremble.
She hugged Damon very tightly.
It was hard for her to say that.
Everyone thought she was his girlfriend.
But really, except for the year he carried her out of the basement, he had never gotten close to her in physical touch after that, talk more of hugging her.
She craved the smell of him.
It was as if an extreme sense of security reassured her.
Damon stood quietly without speaking.
Gia’s heart became more and more bottomless.
Until her fingers were pulled apart bit by bit by him.
She felt as if her entire body was being dragged into the water, the surface of the water spreading over her head, making her feel suffocated.
Damon turned around after pulling Gia away from his body.
His voice was low, without much emotion..
