Chapter 108: Confess, You’re jealous!
"You guys head back to your rooms. I’m taking my wife to the Spring," Kai exclaimed, dismissing them as he emerged from the dungeons. Ren clung tightly to his hand, her grip unrelenting. For no reason, she was worried he might faint!

Kai turned to Ren, his voice low. "Let’s get out of here before they drag us into another commotion."
They slipped behind the castle, miles away from the buildings where a cave nestled in the heart of jagged rocks came into view. Ren had never ventured to this part of the castle before. As they climbed the black, rocky steps, she asked nervously, "Are you sure you’re alright?"
"Yes. You didn’t even need to waste the antidote."
Ren frowned and huffed in frustration. "I didn’t waste it. What if that infection had affected you?" He said once a vampire’s wound never hurt him nor did it cause infection. But Ren was talking about the pain. She hated to cause him severe pain.
"Oh, now you suddenly care about me?"
"I always care about you! You should’ve let Shadow out."
Shadow stirred in his head. Ask her, you bastard, did she miss me? Kai snorted. "Did you miss him?"
