"Shh!" Klautz slammed his index finger on his lips all the while covering her with his whole hand.
He had to forcefully shut her mouth for fear that his little act might get caught. Just a squeak was what was needed to make the man on his guard.
The air around Klautz turned dark. He glared at her as if piercing her very soul.
*Gulp*
Verona realized that she was more submissive to him than she had possibly assumed. She stopped resisting and closed her eyes preparing herself for what to come.
It was only after some time had passed that Klautz was able to come out of the bushes as he heaved a sigh of relief.
He let go of her as he spoke.
"We had someone spying on us. That is why I had to do that to ensure that you don't get me into trouble."
Verona opened her eyes that were closed shut.
"Eh?" Verona squeaked. She had a puzzled expression on her face as she tried to make sense of Klautz words.
"Oh I see"
