Valente pulled out and stared into her eyes. She looked down as he stared at her, and sobbed, "Don't leave me. You'll never hurt me... See?" She took his injured hand in hers and caressed it. "You made yourself bleed, almost cut y-your own h-ha-hand off because you didn't want to hurt me."
He said nothing and breathed out, staring at her.
"Your hand's bleeding again. Let's go to Richard. He's gonna make it disappear." She pulled her with him and he silently let him be dragged wherever she was going.
Suni mused that she had persuaded him to stay with her even when he could be controlled whenever Scarlax would like to manipulate him. But one thing she didn't understand was why would Scarlax want to kill her. Didn't she have Abeloth in him? Her death means his death too.
They reached the male omega's house and knocked on the door.
"Rich!" Suni called out.
"Rich?" Valente mumbled, furrowing his brows.
"Hm? Why?"
