Chapter 524

Evadne and the others followed Jason’s intense gaze-

And there, under the dim glow of a street lamp, stood Nydia, her delicate frame almost disappearing against the backdrop of the night. The evening breeze tousled her soft, seaweed like hair and caressed her tear–stained, porcelain cheeks,

“Jason‘

Her hoarse voice echoed his name, tears cascading down her face without end.

Her fragile silhouette seemed on the verge of being devoured by the darkness, so pitiful it could shatter one’s heart.

Jason, driven by a surge of protectiveness, dashed to the girl he adored. His eyes reddened, he embraced her with all the strength he could muster, as if trying to draw out every last drop of her pain.

“Why are you out here so late? It’s not safe,” he managed to say, struggling to steady his voice while his breaths came out ragged.

“Jason, I just wanted to wait for you. I missed you so much.” Nydia sobbed harder, her tears soaking into his shoulder.

Truth be told, she had been standing there since before dusk, including when she made those distress calls to her sister and brother–in–law.

She had been waiting, waiting for Jason to walk out with his head held high.

She didn’t know how long it would take, but no matter how long, she was willing to wait.

“I missed you too, missed you like crazy” Jason said, his eyes filled with tender concern. He gently wiped away the tears from her

eyes.

Then, pressing his hand firmly against the small of her back, he lowered his gaze, which was moist with emotion, and captured her soft lips in a kiss that was as fierce as it was lingering.

Evadne watched the lovers reunite after their ordeal, her tears turning to smiles, rubbing her swollen eyes, “Oh, that’s just beautiful.

Thaddeus wrapped his arm around her waist, whispering huskily in her ear, “Evadne, when we get home, I’ve got something even better for you.

Blushing, she nestled into his embrace, her cheeks flushing with a coquettish pink.

“Evadne, you two head home and get some rest, we’re heading back to Skyrim. We’ll be in touch, Chasel said with a smile, waving

them off.

“Chasel”

Evadne had long stopped playing the aloof heiress in front of him, calling Chasel’s name with such familianty, “You really came through for us this time. Just say the word, how can I ever thank you?”
