Gale awoke to find a body clinging to him, sadly, it wasn't the woman he wanted. Vale, who was in the middle of them, was nowhere to be seen, so in his place, Ai clung to him to get a bit of warmth.
She was still sleeping, her breathing slow and quiet, with a faint redness on her face.
Gale sat up and found her small figure rising up with him, the way she clung onto him. He checked on her temperature to find it decreased, though still wasn't normal.
Gale cast a radiance healing spell on her, as Ai stirred over him, her grip softening. Gale rested her on the ground and sat straighter when a snort came into his ears.
He found Wang Li moving up from her spot.
"So have you thought about it?" Gale asked her, joining her on the way out of the igloo.
Wang Li glared at him accusingly and remained silent.
"No pressure," Gale said after her.
