NovelEnglishMillie felt her entire body aching and weak, and even speaking felt like an added effort.
“I’LL take a short nap. Wakein ten minutes. I’ll walk on my own.”
“Alright.”
Hardly had Marcus finished speaking when he sensed Millie quietly settling on his back.
When Millie regained consciousness, she found herself beneath a concrete ceiling. Where was she?
She turned her head to the side and spotted an elderly woman in the room, sorting through clothes. She appeared to be in her sixties or seventies, her temple hair pure white.
“Excuse me, ma’am. Can you tellwhere I am?”
Millie touched her forehead and slowly sat up, realizing her stomachache had lessened.

“Miss, you’re awake. You’re in my home.”
Millie rose from the bed and bent down to slip on her shoes.
“Thank you for lettingstay. Where are the others who were with me?”
She had only intended to rest on Marcus’ back for a brief ten-minute respite.
How had she ended up here after opening her eyes?
“They’re in the yard outside,” the elderly woman responded.

“In that case, I’ll go find them,” Millie said.
As she exited the bedroom, Millie noticed a restroom along the corridor and paused.
Oh no, hadn’t her period started? She hoped she hadn’t soiled the hostess’s bed.
Millie swiftly retraced her steps and addressed the elderly woman, “Excuse me, ma’am. I need to use the restroom.”
The elderly woman waved her hand and said, “Of course, dear, feel free to use it.”
Millie rushed to the restroom and removed her pants. Fortunately, she discovered only a small, dried bloodstain on her underwear.
Upon careful examination, she found no traces of blood on her pants.
Millie spotted a blow dryer hanging nearby. She decided to take off her underwear, wet the bloodstain, vigorously rub it to remove the blood, and then use the blow dryer to dry it before putting it back on.
Millie returned to the yard. When Trenton spotted her approaching, he stepped aside to give them space.
Marcus’ stern and handscountenance softened, and a gentle smile graced his lips.

“It’s been around twenty minutes. Didn’t I request that you wakein ten minutes? Why didn’t you?”
Millie had taken a glance around and observed the flat surroundings with mountains in the backdrop. They had evidently made it out.
Marcus had carried her on his back along the mountain path, which must have been quite exhausting for him.
Marcus lightly pinched her now slightly revitalized cheek.
“At Tea Mount, weren’t you looking for a way to getto carry you? Now that I’ve been carrying you a bit longer, aren’t you satisfied?”
With Marcus’ prompting, Millie recalled the situation. While they were leaving the hot spring pool, she had seen a couple cuddling, with the guy carrying the girl on his back. Millie had felt envious and, as a result, pretended to be tired, claiming she couldn’t walk anymore, and asked Marcus to carry her on his back.
“Well, it’s not quite the sas now,” Millie responded, but reminiscing about that moment brought a hint of sweetness to her.
“Is your stomach still giving you trouble?” Marcus inquired, his gaze shifting to her flat abdomen.
Millie smiled warmly and replied, “Much better now.”
At that moment, Marcus took her hand and guided her into the room. “Cinside with me.”
Upon reaching the bedroom where Millie had been resting earlier, Marcus closed the door after them. He gently pressed her against the door, enveloping them both with his presence.
“What’s your intention here? We’re in someone else’s house. We mustn’t act recklessly,” Millie exclaimed, her hands resting against his firm chest, trying to push him away.
