Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 406

Chapter 406

The night was filled with lively festivities that lasted until past midnight, after which everyone retired to their rooms to sleep.

Ryan was exhausted beyond measure, but he held on as much as he could. At the end of the night, Travis carried him back to their room.

Rafael held Carissa close in the warmth of their bed, hoping to warm not just her body but her heart as well. He expected her to say something, but she remained silent, quietly lying in his embrace with even breaths. He couldn’t tell if she had fallen asleep.

However, Carissa was not asleep. She couldn’t sleep, and she didn’t want to move or speak. Some things, she believed, had to be endured silently. She would grit her teeth through the pain. Time would eventually cover the wounds,sealing away the hurt.

That was her usual way of coping.

What was different now was that she had someone who truly cared

for her.

Rafael felt a pang of sadness in his heart, mostly from the pain he felt for her. She would smile at him when she was happy, but she never cried in front of him when she was sad. She always hid her darker, sorrowful side and only presented him with calm, rationality, and smiles.

He had never heard her say she was in love with him, except once to Ryan, but he knew that was a lie meant to placate Ryan.

At that time, Rafael had taken it seriously, and naturally, he was deceiving himself.
