Never Late, Never Away Chapter 764
The four walls of the house were starting to prove defenseless against the cold wind of the night.
Finnick let go of Vivian, who had woken up from the zing temperature, to find if there was anything around them that could keep them warm.
Since the moment they arrived here, all Vivian could think about was Larry, and all Finnick could think about was Vivian.
Neither of them had bothered to inspect the house, which turned out to be much larger and cleaner than they’d initially thought.
Finnick looked around and soon found a blanket that looked new.
He couldn’t help but feel somewhat grateful towards the kidnappers for giving him a chance to have some alone time with Vivian.
I promise to have a little mercy on the culprits after we’ve escaped this place.
The corners of his lips quirking slightly, he picked up the blanket and draped it over Vivian’s shoulders.
His hands accidentally brushed against hers during the motion, the sudden iciness of her skin gave him sent a chill over to him.
How could her hands be this cold? Finnick wasn’t sure if he wanted to know the answer to that.
Is she worried about Larry or is this the temperature?
Decided to keep his questions to himself, he leaned in to hold her hands in his.
Vivian instinctively tried to pull them away, but she took one wry glance at Finnick’s intense stare and gave up.
There was no use trying to fight against him.
Vivian’s hands returned to their normal temperature after about fifteen minutes of Finnick warming them up by blowing on them. He tucked her hands into the blanket, telling her, “There’s actually a kitchen here stocked with some food. I’ll go make something for you to eat.”
They’d gone on the whole day without eating and had exerted lots of energy. She had to be starving by now.
Vivian’s eyes widened at the statement.
He’s going to cook? Hah. Is he sure?
In no mood to entertain his joke, Vivian just nodded silently.
