"Mmm... Ah, Cheyenne... Easy now."
"Hiss...."
"Mmm, ah..."
In the dark night, a blurry black head could be faintly seen buried against his chest.
As she cleaned his wounds, her soft, damp lips... brushed against him in an instant.
Kelvin's heartbeat involuntarily quickened.
Her cool, smooth cheek rubbed against his chest, causing an indescribable sensation, as if an electric current had passed through, sending shivers down his spine.
Cheyenne's ear was also pressed close to his chest, listening to his heartbeat, causing her face to grow warm.
With a bit of impatience, she lifted her head and glared at him, "Kelvin, why the hell are you making such annoying noises? Even slaughtering chickens isn't as unpleasant as your whining!"
Kelvin wryly smiled and helplessly replied, "It's not my fault, your tongue licked..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Cheyenne's face turned even hotter, and she retorted angrily, "You think I want to? You're covered in blood and sweat, and I have to use my teeth to remove the needle!"
"It wasn't intentional."
As she said the last sentence, her tone betrayed a hint of guilt.
But it really wasn't intentional.
He didn't respond and silently broke into a dazzling smile in the darkness.
Kelvin couldn't help but think inwardly: How come he never noticed before that Cheyenne could be so adorable...
Suddenly, a faint sigh sounded from above their heads, and he said, "Cheyenne, if I really die here, I'll have to repay you in my next life for everything I owe you."
Hesitating for a second at his words, her voice turned cold as she replied, "You're dreaming. In my next life, I don't want to meet you again."
Didn't want to meet him?
Kelvin felt an indescribable sense of loss, "I see..."
Omari, Iker, Eddie, who were by her side, seemed to treat her really well.
If he were to truly die, Cheyenne wouldn't be sad either.
"Shut up, don't disturb me. The needle is already very thin, and since I can't see it, if I accidentally bite you, I won't take responsibility."
"Mmm."
It took a lot of effort for her to use her teeth to pull the broken needle out. Cheyenne wiped her lips and her cheeks felt sore.
"You've been through a lot, thank you..."
Suddenly he earnestly thanked her, and Cheyenne felt a bit at a loss. Even though she knew he couldn't see her, she turned her head away.
In a casual tone, she said, "Don't overthink it. I hate owing favors the most. Once we're out of this door, we'll be even."
Hearing her indifferent voice, Kelvin felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. Even now they were even...
But he didn't want to be even with her.
Time passed slowly, and they lost count of how many times they woke up in this extremely quiet and dim space.
Never had they felt such tranquility in life.
The hunger pangs in their stomachs became unbearable. Cheyenne rested against the wall, closing her eyes to conserve energy.
"Gurgle..."
