Mo Shian had heard her begging him not to leave. He had also heard her apologize repeatedly.
He did not know what she was seeing in those nightmares, but they terrified her.
"Did something happen that you haven't told me?"
Weiwei felt her throat tighten.
Something had happened.
He had died in her arms while apologizing because he could no longer protect her.
She had watched the light disappear from his eyes and lived for an entire week in a world without him.
Even though he was alive now and sitting beside her, the pain remained.
She suddenly moved forward and wrapped her arms around his waist.
Mo Shian stiffened before immediately embracing her.
Weiwei pressed her face against his chest. His heartbeat was strong and steady beneath her ear.
It reassured her that he was alive.
"There are some things I don't know how to explain yet," she whispered.
Mo Shian's arms tightened.
"Are you in danger?"
"No."
"Is someone threatening you?"
"No."
"Did someone hurt you?"
