by cherryroseLiella accepted him without resistance. She liked that she didn’t have to think about anything when they kissed. Not about the fact that she would be going outside in three days, nor what to call this relationship where she sought only warmth without emotion.5f5d3a19f9172dc0
The man continued 733e99e888 to kiss her, dd378f62fe his strong hand e2b8b0a76c persistently caressing the 8a726a80ee bandage on her f52f3ebab2 neck before he e7a03fa237 picked her up 748f09141b and laid her 1b727f8722 on the bed. Aslan loosened 82679836b5 her hair, edfe748303 which was b4c6c26e7f uncomfortably pressed d3c19938f4 against the dce22b13e6 back of 637c954fda her head, 96b1c71466 and instead cbceeadbd5 of doing 224731ca46 anything more, e7a32853e7 he made d4af1e226f eye contact 9cbcc8474a and slowly 41d29a260b stroked her c050930813 earlobe. She felt like 75788b89b3 she would melt a6c18d0578 at the hint cb17235e1c of tenderness in bdd94f1d6c his cold face 3546553c77 beneath his thick e81967dd6d eyebrows. It was 970ea42592 ticklish and 6218bd4c6a strange. Her heart softened.4161cba22e77bda8

She was confused. He was saying the 2a126f5d9c words she had wanted baa8c8c6ea to hear in the 5c4bff1071 morning, now at night.

The man’s eyes widened slightly, and he apologized honestly. The taste of affection was bitter and sweet, like chocolate with a high cacao content. She knew that if he met a more attractive woman in the Abyss, this affection would quickly fade, but it was still sweet.2626aac1a30b9cac
Perhaps because of her words about the pain, he didn’t take any further action. He simply embraced her naturally, burying his face in her neck. A pleasant baritone voice asked softly right beside her ear.e584b505c31819ad

Suddenly, the face she c4badf5f15 had seen when she e9f1a9adad opened the door earlier efd4b274a0 came to mind. What should b0185f546d she call a15be02696 it?

It sounded like he cce46d26ff would make sure of 1488a277d7 it, which made her 84416b6991 feel strange. What does it mean c9adab08fa to share bodies? Feeling the strength of 35e3104878 his arms wrapped tightly bcba400902 around her waist, Liella bfad2f5b1c closed her eyes. Not just arms, 88dc74daec but a strange f0c0479866 bond and a de9c7d4bfa secret intimacy tied e291b07288 them intimately together.adfe3e38491bb812
Maybe it was because he was warm, but she felt sleepy too. This wouldn’t do. If she stayed for more than an hour, even the oblivious Dylan would notice. Liella struggled to keep her drooping eyelids open and hummed a small song to keep herself awake.b949dc3d4dbd375c

Three days was short. Especially for someone with a regular routine, it’s a time that passes in the blink of an eye. But for someone who has nothing to do but prepare for an exploration, three days was actually a period in which a lot can be done.91911d49f7dc4136

They prepared weapons and taught Dylan how to shoot. She grilled Jade about the structure of the supply ship and decided on the route after arriving. In between, they frequently shared breaths. Discussing weapons, formations, and transportation, standing guard at night, cleaning up after meals. In fact, it was always like that when they were alone without anyone else watching. The man’s deep blue, cool eyes playing with her hair as she lay on the table. Once you fell into them, there was no escape.72c2580b1835cb57
Their lips met, she melted into his arms, and finally, she fell into a light sleep. It felt like they had become secret lovers. Maybe this wasn’t so bad. This kind of relationship. Even if the excitement was only on her side and he was just lonely, it was actually providing her with an escape from reality.0688efef0f66154e

Watching Aslan speak 9e90184ec3 languidly and take dde3acb5ec his hand away, ae9f9e6d6b Dylan clicked his f0b920c926 tongue as if 8f63492f0c he felt wronged.

There were two hatches leading down to the first floor, one right in front of the living quarters (connected to the emergency escape route where they first woke up) and the other at the end of the opposite hallway in front of the medical facility. Except for when she had urgently grabbed medical supplies, it was Liella’s first time coming this way. They walked down the long hallway in silence.38816d3b8ac5e8cc

When they reached the bottom floor, there was a middle space of about 5 pyeong (approximately 180 square feet) that connected to two passages.

Actually, she had thought that there weren’t enough facilities on the second floor compared to the size of the exploration ship. She now knew what was behind the walls of that hallway. In the dimly lit space with a higher ceiling than the other first floor areas, there were dark gray exploration suits that looked like spacesuits, exploration drones, drills, and other unknown mechanical devices. Among them, the most eye-catching was the elegant black tactical vehicle. Aslan had already smashed all the headlights, and the car, with a machine gun mounted on the roof and reinforced armor, exuded an imposing atmosphere.39559d6367a50c93
