Chapter 29 : Unexpected Gain?

It's touching!! It's touching!! Ohh shit ! What do i do ? It's soft ...

Clinging to him from behind, her face was buried in his back. Eiden froze, stunned, unsure what to do. His eyes darted around, only to catch Sasha in the distance, watching silently. She turned away without a word and walked off.

Eiden's gaze then shifted to Deuel, who was rubbing his face before giving Eiden a meaningful look and silently walking away too.

What the hell is he still acting cool for? Eiden thought irritably, still standing there awkwardly with Lyra clinging to him.

He could feel the weight of multiple gazes on him. Whispers. Curiosity.

Helpless, Eiden just stayed still until Lyra slowly loosened her arms.

He turned around to see her tear-reddened eyes, but from the corner of his vision, he spotted someone rushing over Crysty.

She immediately wrapped Lyra in a hug.
