My Heart only Beats for You

An average person wouldn't be able to climb so far up such a tall tree, much less with a person on their back. Tremaine didn't reply.

Climbing this tree wasn't much of a challenge for him. He had gone through much worse from his field training.

"Get some sleep," Tremaine said, "We should rest now,"

Yesseca could only keep quiet.

Sleep on this big tree?

Tremaine had to be joking.

Tremaine had already switched off the light on his phone, so he couldn't see Yesseca's face at all. If he did, he would have noticed that Yesseca's face was as dark as the night sky right now. "What if we fall off the tree? If we went to sleep, we'd definitely fall and die!" Yesseca added.

"Sleep in my arms, then you won't fall."

Yesseca blushed bright red. "No!"

"Up to you," Tremaine said casually, "You don't have much of a choice right now,"

Just as he finished talking, a loud howl rang out from somewhere within the forest.

Yesseca was so scared that she nearly fell off the tree. Luckily, Tremaine held onto her hand.

Tremaine said coldly, "You'll hear that very often in the forest at night. You won't notice them if you're asleep. All you need to do is sleep in my arms, and then it'll be morning before you know it," Yesseca's lips trembled.

Tremaine was right. She didn't have much of a choice right now.

She was terrified.

Not only was she high up on a tree, there were animals howling out there and it was so dark she couldn't see anything in front of her.

She was very eager to fall asleep and see the sunrise.

Yesseca finally got into Tremaine's arms. "Alright, I'll sleep in your arms. You won't fall, will you?"

"No, I won't." Tremaine said curtly.

If anyone else said this, she wouldn't have trusted them, but when Tremaine said it, Yesseca believed him completely.

If he said he wouldn't fall, then he definitely won't.

Yesseca closed her eyes.

The whole experience she went through today kept replaying in her mind like a movie. She was still confused as to what was going on.

She forced herself to stop thinking about it.

She then tried to go to sleep as soon as possible. Everything would be fine when you fall asleep. Things will be okay when the sun rises tomorrow. Yesseca slept in Tremaine's arms, but he didn't get any sleep. He closed his eyes, but was completely alert.
