Chapter 106: Don’t Make Me Regret It
REAGAN POV
"I still can’t believe you rode all the way out here just to come save me." I said to Dahlia who was seated on my horse, she was riding with me.
Dahlia didn’t respond and continued to stare ahead. A silent protest to when I demanded she ride with me instead of riding on her own horse like she initially wanted. I had told her there was no way she was going to be riding alone when there was no telling how safe the road was going to be.
Of course, Dahlia being the stubborn dark haired beauty that she was argued with me that she could handle herself just fine but eventually I won the argument by claiming that if she doesn’t get her sweet ass on the saddle, I will strap her to it myself.
I was jerk, I know that but I had no choice! The more time we spent arguing the more time we give the Kashkil reinforcements time to catch up to us.
Giving me a look that could freeze an entire nation, Dahlia decided to climb up the saddle while I hauled myself right next to her, not missing the curses she mumbled under her breath and then the silent treatment began.
Now riding through the thick forest, I could feel her annoyance radiating off of her in waves. She moves away as far as she could, her entire body movement stiff but still staying mounted on the horse. Anytime her body touched mine, she would immediately grow rigid and scoot farther away from me.
I chuckled deeply while keeping my hands firm on the reins. "You know you move any farther you are going to fall off the damn horse." I said but Dahlia said nothing and just continued to stare straight ahead, completely ignoring me as if I didn’t exist, as if I wasn’t sitting directly at her back.
Nikolai who was riding right next to me, smirked almost as if he was enjoying it, fucking bastard! I thought to myself as I stared back at Dahlia who looked rigid, she must be uncomfortable.
