Chapter 88 - A Little Ruckus

Belladonna fell asleep quickly but Eli couldn't sleep.

It still felt like a dream.

He kept looking at her to ensure that she wasn't just a figment of his imagination and that everything that had happened wasn't just an illusion.

Hopefully, it hadn't been as a result of him being so desperate that his mind had tricked him into thinking this had happened.

Wait! Was it possible that Galdur still had him trapped in his mind?

His fingers went through her hair again and she turned in her sleep, facing him.

His breath caught in his throat.

No.

This was real.

They should leave Osi’s house now and return to the Golden Boy's Guest House, but Eli didn't feel like moving an inch.

He could live here forever.

Besides, their hosts said they could stay for the night.

That was what they would do.

When he started falling asleep, he pulled her into his arms, afraid that if he didn't she would disappear while he slept.
