Nathan froze in place. When he felt his clothes being clutched tightly, he turned around to look at Suzanne in the dark.

A flash of lightning echoed the skies outside, lighting up everything. It lit up Suzanne’s tearful, desperate eyes. It was a pitiful sight indeed.

Suzanne could scent his fragrance and feel his warm breath on her face. She blushed.

Nathan saw how frightened she was and caressed her head. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll be back right away.”
