418 YOU NEED TO TAKE IT OFF (1/2)
Senja didn't like that fact, afraid actually. It would trouble her sooner or later.
When Senja was about to talk something the sound of footsteps echoed and both of them stared at each other with wide eyes.
”Could it be…” She didn't finish her word before she stood up abruptly and ran toward the direction of the source of the sound.
Before Senja could prevent her to do so, she could her voice squealed.
”What's happening?” Senja shouted at her with concerned. She tried to stand but, couldn't make a step. Only now she saw her leg was bandages by her when she fell unconscious. She used fabric from her own dress.
Couldn't go anywhere Senja tried to feel her surrounding, it was so dim and the moonlight was covered by dark cloud, hence her eyesight was not able to apprehend her surrounding quickly.
Later on, she felt strong arms sneaked around her midsection and pulled her to his sturdy chest.
”Senja…”
His voice, she was so recognizable in her ears.
”You came…” Senja sighed deeply, wrapping her arms around his neck.
”Senja…” His voice was so broken as he buried his face on the curve of her shoulder and breathed in her scent.
He was furious and terrified when he walked down deeper. As his stepped bring them further away and they still couldn't find her, all the horrible possibility was roaming around his head and gnawed his mind.
He felt so lost and hopeless.
”Senja…” He called out her name again as though afraid she would be gone again.
”I am here…” Senja whispered to his ear as she ran her fingers through his soft black hair.
However, when Xiao Tianyao tightened his hugged, squeezing her body to be more closer if that possible, Senja winched because of the piercing pain that shot through her spine.
”I am sorry.” Out of instinct Xiao Tianyao released her small body and held her shoulder. ”I didn't think about that…” He regretted.
Xiao Tianyao just wanted to hold her tight in his arms, but forgot that his woman had just fallen from the nerve wrecking height of cliff.
It was miracle that both of them could survive, but didn't mean they were perfectly fine. It was too much to ask for that.
