After having Marc's full support, Thea reached the twenty-eighth floor and rang the doorbell for Esme's apartment.
Thea breathed a sigh of relief when Holly became the first person she saw as the white metal door in front of her opened.
"Come in," Holly grabbed Thea's hand, leading the girl inside.
Worries didn't necessarily leave Thea. Thea spontaneously pulled Marc's hand until the alpha's tall body loomed behind her back.
Thea spontaneously stopped her steps as she passed through the narrow hallway from the living room to the family room. At that time, Julien was wiping his face with a rough brush after closing the crimson wooden door behind his back.
Thea turned and looked at Marc over her shoulder as she breathed heavily.
Marc gave Thea a nod, then leaned over and whispered, "I'm here. Don't worry."
When only a few meters were left, Thea rushed to hug Julien's giant body.
