Hope For Treatment

Lucas smiled. When he saw that there was no one else around, he reached out and gently pulled Cheyenne into his arms. Only then did he let out a long breath of relief.

Only he himself knew how flustered and vexed he had been when he lost track of Karen last night and even mistakenly thought that she had been killed.

He had been afraid that Cheyenne would bear a grudge against him because of Karen's death. They had just reconciled a short while ago, and he had been afraid that their relationship might become strained again because of Karen and never go back to the way it used to be.

Fortunately, Karen didn't die in the end. He was glad that Cheyenne would no longer bear a grudge against him.
