SWNOVELS Chapter 1300
As she moved toward the door, she glanced back several times. Once outside,
she huddled into a squat, clutching her knees. What had led to this? Marcus had
to be alright. She would give half her life for him, if it meant no more suffering on
his part.
Never before had time felt so sluggish for Millie. The room was so well-insulated
that she couldn't hear a thing, yet she knew that Marcus was enduring his own
kind of hell-a hell that even a man as resilient as he was couldn't fend off.
After what seemed to be an eternity, her phone buzzed.

The room felt like the aftermath of a battle, heavy with melancholy.

Millie shook her head.
“I'm unharmed.”

Marcus rubbed his chin against Millie's forehead, a comforting gesture.
