Chapter 168
Ferio and Varia were so close their noses nearly touched.
If either of them turned their head slightly, it wouldn’t have been strange if their lips brushed.
There was barely enough space for a single finger between them.
Startled, Varia instinctively tried to pull back, but Ferio swiftly grabbed her arm to stop her.
However, the grip on her arm was barely forceful. If Varia had tried to shake it off, she easily could have. But she didn’t notice that.
The woman was completely captivated by the man’s black eyes.
It felt like her entire body was being consumed by an abyss deeper than the farthest darkness.
A dull, warm feeling she had never experienced before began to spread from around her heart.
And it was the same for the man.
The murky pink strands of her hair began to twist like vines around his neck.
But it was a sweet kind of pain. A chilling sensation prickled up his spine.
‘...What if.’
