Marcus Wood didn't know how long his body had been stiff, but Lora Sharp remained motionless.
It wasn't until he felt a slight numbness in his body that he heard Lora Sharp's steady breathing beside him.
Marcus Wood also let out a sigh of relief.
She hadn't woken up.
Normally, Lora Sharp was particularly vigilant.
As an orphan, she never felt safe.
Even after being adopted by the Sharp Family, Lora Sharp remained cautious and careful.
And on the civilian spacecraft before, it was her alertness that saved so many people.
However, now in Marcus Wood's embrace, she seemed unusually relaxed, exuding a strong sense of security.
Marcus Wood could feel Lora Sharp's trust and reliance on him, and a faint smile appeared on his usually stern face.
A gentle warmth, imperceptible to others, emerged.
Time passed, and Marcus Wood gradually fell into a deep sleep.
Lora Sharp began to dream. She dreamt of what it would be like to be with her parents.
