Chapter 128

Freya’s POV

I don’t remember the last time I laughed to the point my chest constricted and I was lost for air.

I choke, taking deep gasps as I wipe a few tears leaking through.

Everything hurts, but I feel so good.

Just when we’re out, Silas drops me on my feet, watching me till my laughing fades and I can look at him straight without closing my eyes.

He smiles warmly at me, gently tucking a stray strand of hair behind my ears. “Well, that was fun.” He comments as we begin walking down the lane to nowhere in particular.

“Yeah, but I think we’re definitely banned from entering again.” I point out.

“Worth it.” He adds.

I smile, taking the fresh cool breeze moving around us in a deep inhale.

The weather seems so perfect, especially the sun slowly setting and casting an orange tint in the sky.

It’s so beautiful. A luxury I now realize I had been missing on for weeks. “Wanna get some ice scream?” He says suddenly.
