Currently, Jill and I are back in her quarters, and in my hand is a brown-looking map made with synthetic leather.
"I think I have a grasp of how this planet works… Besides, you don't have to worry about me getting lost." I say with a smile, taking a final look at the map before tossing it on the bed.
"Jake, you don't have to go! Let me sort it out myself!" Jill says as she appears in front of me, stopping me from leaving the room. Right now, I can see the worry etched on her face, and she's currently sweating even though vampires don't really sweat. Her breathing is also getting rough as if she wants to cry.
Seeing her like this, a feeling of guilt envelopes me. Jill must have a reason for acting like this because she rarely ever gets tensed even in a dangerous situation.
Putting my hands on her shoulders, I give her a light smile before pulling her into my embrace.
