Aurora Blaine's heart suddenly races.
Such a dangerous thing, spoken like that...
Knowing he doesn't want her to blame herself, he makes it sound so nice, and she feels moved yet a bit bittersweet.
Maverick Knight holds her wrist, "I hurt you as well, so I plan to make it up over the rest of my life."
Aurora finds he's getting better at cheering up girls, just blurting out such sweet words.
When she first met him, he was a straightforward guy who would directly carry people around!
His words change the atmosphere, making Aurora feel much more comfortable.
She steps forward, closing the gap of less than a meter between them, and reaches out to hug him.
Now there's no danger around, no pressure, just the two of them.
Aurora doesn't dare to use force, gently hugging him, afraid to touch his wounds, she murmurs, "I miss you."
These words make Maverick's gaze deepen.
