The Cheat Seed

*Yawn*

Marcus rubbed his eyes and slowly sat up. He was still sleepy when he turned around to find no one. Cloy and Luka, they had already woken up.

His head turned straight and his eyes met with Melova's.

"JEEZ..Hehe"

All 3 of them, Melova, Luka and Cloy were in front of him, contemplating him before turning their gaze towards his right.

Marcus followed their eyes and turned his head to his right. No wonder he felt his right hand being squeezed, IT WAS KERIN!!.

She was sleeping soundly beside him, holding his fingers between hers.

Marcus blushed a bit but slowly wriggled his hand free off her, without disturbing her sleep. His cheeks became red as he stood up with his eyes on them.

Without a word Marcus walked towards the rock shelf and grabbed the jug of water. He gulped down three mouthful before Luka broke the silence.

He stuttered as he thought what to ask his gonna be Guildmaster.

"Ah..It's just that I needed a place to stay"

Marcus answered but hesitated a bit.

"But boss, your house is way more comfortable than this...Then why.."

"My house got destroyed yesterday...Again"

Marcus cut off Melova's words and spoke out his own. His forehead twisted as his brows furrowed at them.
