His stern attitude made her panic again, “No! Of course not! I was just kidding. Sorry, it’s probably not that appropriate-”

Only then did a grin appear on his lips.

“Relax. I was fooling with you too,” he pushed the hair out of her face and stared deeply into her eyes. “You have my unconditional trust, Janet.‘

A gentle feeling filled her heart.

Daran ordered to have their campsite built at an opening 5 miles away from the fort. While soldiers working on that, he and the Gammas climbed up to a high ground trying to get a better view of the fort.

A blizzard broke in around this time. The wind was gusting, and the snow was so heavy that it was almost impossible to gaze into the distance.
