#Chapter271
‘Witch’, this word plays in her head as she is looking down. She is sitting in the corner of the bed, holding her palms together. She feels as if she has no control of what is happening. Her heart is in pain with Aryan’s attitude, her mind is confused with what happened between her and Zed and she is enraged with how she was treated.
*Leona?*, she hears a faint voice inside her head.
‘Zed?’, she realizes it’s him.
*Are you okay?*. Leona sighs, feeling all this weighing her down.
‘I’ll manage.’
*You don’t have to pretend with me. I know you are tough, but I also know that you care too much*, he sees right through her.
‘Does it matter now though? Our plan to get to the Cave has become complicated.’
*I know, but we can also use this time to communicate with Io, what do you say?*. Leona doesn’t answer immediately, making him understand her concern.
*You won’t be alone, I’ll come too*.
