Chapter 60


    Lc was very upset to see where she was going, but when she realized she had gone too far, she


    returned to the waterfall. It was not hard to go back there when. the sound of the water filled the entire


    forest.


    After she saw there was no one there and probably Hunter looked for her somewhere else, she then


    entered the secret cave and stayed there. She was not sure how long she had stayed inside, because


    at some point, she fell asleep without even knowing it.


    She was very exhausted, physically and ment a l l y, where she didn’t even want to think of anything


    else. She only wanted to get some quiet time alone for herself. It was not much to ask.


    Therefore, without any care for the world, Lc rested herself inside the secret cave, where Hunter


    showed her earlier and how he teased her, thinking it was alright to make a joke like that.


    It was fun for him, but for Lc, it was a humiliation because she knew what she did was wrong, but she


    kept doing it anyway, she was in vulnerable state, but all Hunter did wasughing at her. Great.


    “Hm? It is very dark…” Lc rubbed her eyes, she tried to see around her, but it was too dark, it


    rmed her when she heard the jarring sound echoed against the walls of the cave.


    For a moment, she was trying to figure out what happened and where she was… but then, when her


    mind was clear enough and she remembered the event with Hunter, she visibly rxed.”


    “I think I need to go back to the pack house now. I hope I still remember the way to get there…” Lc


    mumbled to herself, as she stood up. She stretched her b*dy and saw a flicker of light that came


    toward her way.


    Someone wasing and Lc stood there silently, until the fire from the torch illuminated her face


    and she squinted her eyes because it was too bright and the light upsetting her sight.


    There you are…


    There was this a low growl, a mix of annoyance, relief and madness, and Lc immediately recognized


    his voice. At this point, she thought, she would be able to recognize his voice anywhere.

    “Do you know what you have done?” Hunter asked, growling to be precise.


    “Sleeping?” Lc asked, the annoyance returned and she couldn’t help, but became a little bit sarcastic


    with him. More so, she didn’t lie. She had been sleeping the entire time, what else she had done?


    She just arrivedst night and in such period of time there were a lot of things that happened, she didn’t


    even have time to take a bath. Now, Lc remembered how she had not yet taken a bath because


    Hunter didn’t allow her, she became even


    more upset.


    “Sleeping?” Hunter reiterated the word incredulously, as if Lc just told him she just grew another pair


    of arms. “All this time you have been sleeping?”


    Lc furrowed her brows. “I don’t need you to insult me again.”


    Hunter shook his head. “My apologize if you feel like I am insulting you, that’s not my intention.”


    “I doubt that.” Lc took a deep breath and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She turned her head


    to look at somewhere else.


    Hunter wanted to speak again, but he didn’t think this was the right ce to talk about it, more so, they


    needed to leave this cave.


    Let’s go


    back to the pack house.” For now, he would drop the matter. They would talk more about it when Lc


    was feeling better.


    en


    Seeing her upset like this, angry even, was way better than not seeing her at all. He would rather have


    her mad at him than to not know where she was.


    And now when she was already in front of him, all of his worried and his own anger had evaporated. All


    Hunter felt was relief to see her fine..


    “Let’s go back.” Hunter stretched out his hand, but Lc didn’t want to take it, as she walked ahead of


    him. She didn’t go too deep into the cave, so she could find her way out of here.


    However, what she didn’t expect was the sight before her eyes when she stepped out of the cave.


    There were at least a thousand people, each of them holding a torch, which the light of it could


    illuminate the night sky and turned the night into day


    Lc was speechless, she halted in her steps when all of them talked how d they were to see her


    fine.


    Chapter 60


    “Wh- what is this?” Lc didn’t dare to take another step, as Hunter approached her from behind. “You


    mobilized your warriors to look for me?”


    “Isn’t that obvious?” Hunter asked. He put his hand on her shoulder.


    “What?” Lc felt her tongue became numb. She knew what happened, what she was seeing was


    enough confirmation what Hunter had done, but why would he do this? This was… too much.


    He didn’t need to mobilize his warriors to look for her, right? Why would he do that.


    “You are missing, so I look for you.” Hunter stated that as if there was nothing wrong with his decision,


    but for Lc it was notmon.


    gone this far


    No one ever had done this kind of thing, in her life, no one had ever go only to look for her.


    When she was in the orphanage and she used to run away from there, the eldest wouldn’t even look


    for her, they would even reprimand her when she returned.


    And the same thing happened when she was very frustrated with her lesson with luna Jasmine, the


    luna didn’t even ask where she had gone and only criticized her childish way to resolve problem by


    running away.


    Hunter took her hand and then helped her to get down from the high rock.


    “You don’t need to do this.” Lc shook her head. She couldn’t believe Hunter would go this far. She


    was flustered and frustrated.


    “I need to do more than this.” Hunter helped her to get down from the rock to the innd, only then,


    he let go of her hand, knowing the reason behind Lc’s anger was because he couldn’t keep his hand


    on himself. “You are my woman and you have gone missing in the forest that you only visited onceExclusive ? content by N(?)ve/l/Drama.Org.


    when you are with me. That’s my responsibility to find you and bring you back. That’s not even a


    question.”


    Lc frowned, she was not used with this kind of attention, though her heart was swollen with


    something warm that she couldn’t exin. No one ever really cared about her wellbeing all this time.


    See? Lc hated it when she wavered like this again. She wanted to stay mad at Hunter, but it was


    hard when he gave her all the attention and care she had never received before.

    “I will ask someone to bring food for you, you must be hungry.” Hunter draped his


    cloak over her shoulders to keep her warm.
