Even though she was trying her best to sound calm, her tears kept falling and dropping on Keegan’s cheek when she looked at the blood all over him.

Keegan could sense her fear and anxiousness. He could even feel her pounding heart.

Keegan wanted to hug her, but his hands were tied behind him. Even the slightest movement caused intense pain in the wound at the back of his head.

He endured the pain and wiped away the tears on Stella’s face with his cheek.

“Don’t cry. I’m fine. It doesn’t hurt at all.” he said softly.

Stella cried even more when she heard Keegan say that. He was bleeding profusely, so it was impossible that it did not hurt.

Keegan sighed and said weakly, “Stop crying. They’ll notice it when they come back.”

These words seemed to work better than his attempt to comfort her earlier, as tears immediately stopped flowing from Stella’s eyes. However, she was still overwhelmed, and her shoulders trembled when she tried her best to hold her tears back.
