Fortunately, the man was quick-eyed and quick-handed, stepping forward in one stride to catch her and pull her into his arms.
With her back against the man's chest, familiar breath, and warmth made Katie Hades no longer want to move. Her exhausted body and mind made her forget everything, wishing only to rely on this warmth.
She turned around, hugged him tightly, and buried her face in his chest, whispering softly, "Let me lean on you for a little longer, just a little longer..."
Fierce Eagle's spine stiffened, and when he looked down at the woman's haggard face, his eyes revealed sympathy. He wrapped one arm around her waist tightly and remained silent.
Katie Hades just hugged him like that. About five minutes passed, her eyelids grew heavy. Even with her eyes closed, she still couldn't fall asleep, her mind was very clear.
"Sleeping pills..." she murmured, her hand that clutched his collar gradually tightening its grip.
