Chapter 298. Never Do That Again
Mauve felt sad at the look on Jael’s face. He looked very angry at her. She closed her eyes, she shouldn’t have let her anger take over her like that.
However, when he said the words that he didn’t need her help, she was furious. Next thing she knew, her hands were moving on their own accord. That was her fault.
She wanted to fix the situation but she couldn’t help but feel like she made it worse. Still, she would have never guessed he would react in that manner. This led to the question of just how long has he been starving himself.
Mauve opened her eyes to see Jael’s face hovering over her, her thoughts were getting groggy and her limbs felt like they didn’t belong to her.
"How do you feel?" He asked.
Mauve blinked, realizing that he had lifted her off the ground and she was now across his arms. "Tired," she replied and turned her gaze away from him.
He took a step forward, leading her to the bed. He got to the bed and gently placed her on it. Mauve immediately rolled on her side, turning her back to him.
She was actually angry, if he wasn’t so hungry he wouldn’t have reacted that way. Why was he angry at her for trying to help?
"Mauve," Jael called softly, touching the back of her hair.
"Y-yes," she replied, the words slurring on her tongue. She didn’t need anyone to tell her she won’t be awake for long.
"Look at me," he commanded.
