As she was struggling, Erwen tried to stand up. However, she coughed out a mouthful of blood instead.
After losing one drop of her Soul Blood, she felt incredibly weak.
Instinctively, Zeke reached out his hand to help her up.
Erwen's skin was so delicate and tender.
As soon as Zeke's hand came in contact with Erwen, she was thunderstruck. She immediately drew her arm back
and blushed.
That was the first time her skin had ever come in contact with a man.
But she collapsed onto the ground again after shying away from Zeke's hand.
Zeke then forcefully grabbed her arm. “You're weak. Please don't force yourself. I'll bring you inside.”
Erwen couldn't break free no matter how hard she tried to shake his hand off her.
The moment she felt his domineering attitude, Erwen had finally realized what it felt like to be a woman. It seems
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlike I'm just a weak woman in front of Zeke after all.
Instead of letting Zeke drag her into the room, she protested, “I have to rescue Yazmin because she's in danger.
Please let me go. I need to find Yazmin now.”
Zeke let out a sigh. “Scrap that. I'll help you rescue Yazmin. Treat it as me returning a favor to you.” Since she put
her life at stake just to prove my innocence, I owe her that much.
Although Zeke didn't need her help, Erwen insisted on tagging along. She was too worried about Yazmin.
Her determination was unfaltering, so Zeke had to compromise. “How about this? Since you're too weak to walk, I'll
piggyback you.”
“No!” Erwen shook her head vigorously.
Since she never had any physical contact with the opposite sex before, she was already blushing uncontrollably
when Zeke touched her arm just now.
She could never allow Zeke to piggyback her.
Helpless, Zeke had no choice but to comply. “Okay, then. You can come along to rescue Yazmin.”
Erwen looked at Mona with a concerned expression. “Mona, wait in the room, okay? I'll go and rescue Yazmin.”
Mona nodded. “Okay.”
After settling Mona down, Erwen was stumbling toward White Muraco Clan's underground cell.
Needless to say, her body was way too weak to stand, let alone walk.
After just a few steps, Erwen tumbled onto the ground once again.
Zeke then walked up toward her and sighed restlessly. “Hurry up! Quit dawdling! Yazmin's life is at stake!”
Erwen's face darkened upon hearing that. Is this man trying to piss me off? Judging by his facial expression, I'm
sure he's making fun of me. Grandma was right about men. They're all trash!
Unwilling to give in, Erwen tried to stand up once again. Unfortunately for her, she failed.
In the meantime, Zeke's patience was running thin. He pulled her up and put her on his back. “That's it! We're doing
this my way. Otherwise, it'd be too late by the time you reach Yazmin.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmErwen mustered every single bit of strength she had left, but her frenzied struggling was to no avail.
Zeke was simply too powerful compared to her.
As she leaned onto Zeke tightly, she could feel her heart racing and face reddening by the second. She had never
felt such emotion before.
Her nervousness was intensifying, and she could barely breathe.
Is this how it feels to be so close to a man? This feels so incredibly nice.
Since she had used up every ounce of her energy, she decided to just lean onto him and embrace the warmth.
However, their actions threw the crowd into a frenzy as they walked through the village.
“Isn't she Holy Maiden of White Muraco Clan? Not only is she on the back of a man, but the man is an outsider!” In
the eyes of the conservative villagers of Muraco, her act was totally unacceptable.
“This is utter humiliation!” The crowd was displeased. Some of them had even tried to stop Zeke in his tracks.
Fortunately, Zeke was too fast for them. None of them could catch up to him.
Meanwhile, Yazmin was chained up in an underground cell of the White Muraco Clan by Ian and Ryan.
