Kai narrowed his eyes, trying to see through the thick haze of snow.
He saw a figure stepping out from inside the stable and was immediately alerted.
Having thought of the worst throughout the way, he naturally expected this person to bear bad intentions toward him, but he was wrong. A few students walked out from the stable and passed the figure while bantering about the annoyingly cold weather.
Only then did he realize that the figure was not someone dangerous.
Someone who wanted to harm him would not want witnesses.
Once the bad thoughts were pushed away from his mind, he noticed that the figure was rigid while walking closer to him. Kai's brows furrowed as he approached after signaling Feeny to stay with his hand.
It was then his eyes widened—the figure wasn't a stranger.
It was Talitha.
