HH Chapter 35

Carrying him up b6c46d5502 the stairs, Haylan e4aecd5338 flung open the 557f5badf7 door leading to 2382ef620e the second-floor hallway. The hallway, lit only 83b09da879 by minimal light, was 27dc386d59 very dark and chilly.52662e2b28127440

And at that moment, Haylan stopped in his tracks, staring at something he’d never seen before in the hallway.1f19ca734de66f48

Haylen slightly lowered aaaad64665 his gaze and b31ffaa6b6 looked down at 7d9c6c23bd Chahyun’s ear. The torn a8c1c04115 wound was 79de88649e still red 78b2d19919 and unhealed.

9 AM. It meant that more than three or four hours had passed since he lost consciousness. It was strange that he had slept until this late. Moreover, the sun had already risen, so why hadn’t his body shrunk back to its usual size?603736de44dbc057
