Perhaps his gaze was so hot that she sensed it.
She slowly turned around and saw a familiar figure in the blur. Her eyelashes trembled and tears rolled down. She saw the man clearly.
He wore a faded military uniform, which was not a domestic style.
Arya was too excited to breathe... She forced herself to calm down, staring at him. "Is that you?"
He was tall and straight, with a deep facial outline. He looked at her deeply, and said with a low voice, "It's me."
She rushed over to him, with her arms wrapped around him. "Where have you been for the past few months?"
He lowered his eyes and covered her cheeks with his hand. His palm was hot, broad, and rough. His touch would hurt a little, making her hard to breathe. "Arya, I miss you so much." He gradually calmed down and his voice became lower.
"Am I dreaming? Am I hallucinating again?" She was too excited to calm down and still felt that it was a dream to see him standing in front of her.
Was he safe and sound?
"It's me." The sound was like waves, passing into her heart layer by layer.
She was so excited that she trembled. She leaned on his heart to listen to his heartbeat, and she clutched his clothes. "Do you know how worried and scared I am..."
It was hard to fall asleep at night without him.
"Why are you back so late? Where have you been?" Arya looked up at him.
Xavier's eyes narrowed slightly with a deep look.
He remembered that on their way back from M City after attending Cullen's funeral, the plane crashed. There were only two parachutes, so one was given to Arya and the other was given to Jacob. And when the plane was about to hit the mountain, he chose to jump out of the plane as there was a lake below.
He lost his unconsciousness when he jumped into the water. When he woke up, he found that he was in a jeep, tied up, and couldn't move at all. He raised his eyes slightly to see where he was.
Suddenly, a cold gun was pointed at his head. "Major, he's awake."
Pointing at Xavier, the soldier said to the middle-aged man in the military form who sat in the passenger seat.
"Watch carefully, the General wants him alive." The Major ordered in a low voice.
The soldier nodded, put away his gun, and said to Xavier in English, "Don't move. We won't hurt you."
Xavier was silent because he knew very well that the current situation was out of his control. He needed to know what had happened to him. They just called the man Major?
What Major?
Want me to be alive?
According to their costumes, Xavier had already guessed that they were the army of a country against the government. No matter what happened, they would not hurt him until he knew what was going on, but now he needed to know where he was taken.
After that, Xavier did not speak, and quietly watched their motorcade drive towards the woods deeper and deeper.
It had been more than two hours on the way. Although the sun had not yet set, the light dimmed down as it couldn't penetrate layers of branches.
