She hesitated for a moment and said, "It's nothing much. It's just that when you were taking me back to my room, I noticed you didn't go back but headed toward the stairs. I was wondering if you had something going on. Um, if you don't, then I'll just leave..."
As she spoke, she turned to leave.
But in the next moment, a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind.
"So, are you worried about me, sis?"
Rachel felt enveloped by his presence, and for a moment, she didn't know how to respond.
Worried? Did she really worry about him?
Her thoughts became tangled. Was it because he had saved her tonight?
That she didn't see him as Jeffrey, but rather as "Jeffrey" to be concerned about?
Lost in her thoughts, she suddenly noticed his breathing had become rapid, and she could hear low, suppressed groans escaping his throat.
His arms that had been around her gradually loosened.
