Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Chapter 185

Waiting For Her To Ask For Help After a while, Raegan spotted Mitchel propped against a tree, stealing glances at her as she
descended.
Avoiding any interaction, Raegan opted to tread further down and settled in the shade, anticipating Bryce’s arrival.
The midday sun scorched the hillside, igniting a thirst within Raegan.
Unfortunately, the only water bottle was gone.
The prospect of enduring two days under such conditions seemed daunting, especially under the assumption that Bryce would
deny her water, unless she conceded defeat.
As Mitchel made his descent, Raegan shut her eyes, subscribing to the mantra “out of sight, out of mind”.
Yet, as he walked by, a scent she knew all too well wafted toward her.
The sound of something striking the ground prompted Raegan to open her eyes.
Mitchel had left a water bottle behind.
She puzzled over why she'd never before considered his littering impolite.
The bottle, caught in a sunbeam, seemed to have water rippling inside.
Skeptical, Raegan blinked hard, only to confirm it was indeed half-full.
Frozen in place for minutes, her resistance finally crumbled, and she moved toward the bottle.
Upon retrieving it, Raegan’s expression was a mix of relief and confusion.
She consoled herself with the thought that Mitchel was as fit as a fiddle.
The sun's rays made the water glisten, tempting her parched throat.
With resolve, Raegan unscrewed the cap, tilting her head back to drink without her lips grazing the bottle.
She dared only a few sips from the half-full bottle.

No sooner had Raegan set the bottle down than she noticed Mitchel, who returned and stood before her, eyes narrowed and
arms folded.
His expression was like she was a pervert for taking the mineral water he'd been sipping.

A sudden coughing fit overtook Raegan, her cheeks flushing with red.
Mitchel extended a hand, prompting Raegan to clutch the bottle defensively to her chest, hastily asserting, "I'll pay you back
once we're off this mountain." Mitchel’s outstretched hand paused midair, and ina frosty tone, he replied, "No need.” His
darkening expression led Raegan to surmise he desired no further dealings with her.

hair made him look particularly ghastly. Upon seeing Mitchel, Bryce pushed Eloise toward Mitchel with a sense of urgency, exclaiming, "Mitchel, you are the one who is supposed to look after her.” If it weren't for Eloise who had clung to his arm and dragged him along, Bryce would have ascended earlier. Eloise was disheartened. Had she known how exhausting the day would be, she would never have accompanied Mitchel here to take a trek. Clinging to Mitchel's arm, Eloise

Gazing at Mitchel's striking features, Eloise shook her head determinedly.
"I'm not leaving." She was smitten with this handsome man, having never met anyone who rivaled Mitchel's allure.
Mitchel simply looked at Eloise and kept silent.
Noon had arrived.
Bryce unpacked an assortment of fast food, urging everyone to help themselves.
His challenging stare at Raegan seemed to dare her to confess her hunger.
Raegan turned away, ignoring them.
Soon, the tantalizing smell of food wafted through the air, and Raegan's stomach growled.
She retrieved beef jerky from her bag, rationed it, and ate just enough to satiate her hunger.
Her foresight in packing practical items in her small bag was proving beneficial.
