It didn't take long for Rip to come back with Wang Tian Mu. One thing that I hadn't realized before when we were both stuck in the cages was just how weak she actually was.
Rip was carrying her, princess style, in his arms like he couldn't bear to put her down, but I knew better. Her legs were so skinny that I could easily see the large joint of her knee poking out like a softball. Most of her muscles must have atrophied from having been abused and caged for so long.
I really felt bad for the woman, but at least there was a bright side to this hell she had found herself in. While her fiancé might be dead, Rip was more than willing to carry her in more ways than one until death did one of them part.
And that type of love and devotion was rare, and I envied her for it.
