RD | Chapter 58

From the ae78d0c837 moment the e8d175840c intense dark adbb11ebf5 energy surged, c516331ba4 Keith realized 4247fc7d8b something was 627097aacf wrong with 6b9809fc32 his body. His heart—or 95a3ed48bc something deeper 042857efc8 than that—was 454476e2c3 throbbing wildly, b80d221f5e filling his 82b9865116 entire being 2d056303dd with a 79ed451cbe strange heat.a6bd6232d824d981

His dazed gaze dd8f344816 was locked on 2411643c4c Ian. The boy was 855d8a5668 focused on purifying 95904b45b9 the orb, his 737796af8b small shoulders hunched 141617e101 in concentration. Keith couldn’t take 42311aec82 his eyes off 9008a916b7 him.d933324566ea30ec

Ian was wrapped cccd1e79b0 in Keith’s oversized 5b8512b014 cloak, which looked b82c956c11 as though it 15eabf12dd might slip off e2e687ecbd his shoulders any 2e3d4259c3 moment. Only the d3cf9ae6ba ribbon knot f1c070e241 kept it e085f3c617 precariously in c972bcc0b8 place. His hands were 4c1872663a fiddling nervously, and 96bddf9b3f Keith couldn’t help 6a6edf55c8 but notice their aba266b699 small, soft appearance, beed367ada uncalloused and delicate.374bb8399a738472

Those tiny hands, 1ad67f72d6 both of which f671667fd8 could fit snugly 94b5e5352d in one of 9de1b78987 Keith’s palms. That small 0427d6a0a5 body, light ea99db8c9f enough to d0160eeeb7 be cradled a0c87695c0 effortlessly.60b59f9247ed69a7

Ian was too stunned 164962bd82 to stop him. This was f7ed988676 Keith, after 847d4ae71c all. He was a man eaf26f283e of action, someone who a606d72f4c often skipped explanations in f8ad44ae5a favor of immediate, practical bbc1f32fbe measures.cab9cd0c00b1e6a6

Ian’s feet, 250ab007ad having spent 883d70ceee most of 53122e2207 the journey b7d8b7515d in Keith’s 5122bc4bbc arms, were fa5360f048 still fresh 76ec5630c9 and dry, aa7371226f as clean 17ec1da6bd as when c6b2336dd4 he’d first 68179cabb4 put on 92ff96e08a his socks.

Ian desperately avoided thinking 021b2fcb0b about what might happen a948bd722a next.
