Take Control

Mineah gathered her strength as she met Nikolai's intense stare after she bravely asked the question about Rosela. It was only unfortunate that she couldn't read his mind to find out his genuine answer.

From what she recalled, Rosela and Dahlia were identical twins, meaning that they looked exactly the same. It was possible that Nikolai was seeing Dahlia in Rosela. After all, she was his first love.

Somehow, for unknown reasons, Mineah felt something sharp gliding through her heart from that thought.

"Are you jealous, Mine?" Nikolai directly asked while casually moving his arms

Mineah flinched at the question. Should she say yes? Was that what she was feeling right now? Was it really jealousy? She couldn't be sure just yet.

Turning away from Nikolai's piercing gaze, Mineah deftly changed the topic. "How do we get food out here?" she asked aloud. "I'm starving. Can you go out and hunt? I'll cook for us."
