By the time they had some considerable distance away from Gilas, Gideon asked, "Are you alright?"
He was honestly nervous. Freya was quiet. And somehow, her blank expression was making him even more anxious than normal. Inevitably, he wondered if she was mad with what he just did.
He had no intention of saying their status to Gilas. He just simply couldn't help himself for some reason. And before he knew it, he ended up being possessive and informing the man that Freya was already his.
Gideon held his breath, trying his best to ignore the tightness in his chest as he waited for Freya to answer. Even now, she still bore that expressionless face, and it was making him go crazy with fear and impatience.
Pre-emptively, he dropped his head down low as he tried to think up a good reason to explain himself with. But before he could speak, Freya let out a long sigh, making him raise his head to look at her.
