Maverick Knight stepped into the room, walked up to her, half-squatted down, and placed his hand on her back, "What's wrong?"
The only light in the room was from the phone. Aurora Blaine buried her head in her knees, not speaking.
Maverick Knight noticed something was off about her, he frowned and reached out to pull her up.
Aurora Blaine was pulled up by him, her whole body felt weak, and in the dark, her steps wobbled slightly, almost losing her balance.
Maverick Knight held her wrist to prevent her from falling, feeling her body temperature cooler than usual.
The two were close, he could hear her heavy breathing.
Maverick Knight frowned deeper, he led her to the sofa, let her sit down, and softly asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Outside, a flash of lightning brightened the sky for a moment, followed by a thunderous crack.
At that moment, Maverick Knight felt Aurora Blaine's hand clench into a tight fist.
She's afraid of thunder?
She shouldn't be.
