Isaac had taken a tumble down a cliff before, leaving a scar on his forehead. It wasn't obvious, but up close, you could still spot it. Brittany was seeing the scar on Isaac's forehead for the first time. "Did you get this from falling off that cliff?"

Seeing the redness around her eyes, Isaac knew she felt sorry for him. "It doesn't hurt."

Brittany pouted. "How can such a long wound not hurt?"

She reached out, her soft palm touching the scar. Brittany felt a pang in her heart. "I heard you fell trying to save me."

Isaac held her hand and brought it to his lips. "You're my wife. It's my duty to save you."

Brittany's heart melted, fighting off sleepiness, she leaned in closer.

Isaac remained still.

The next second, a gentle kiss was placed.

Brittany was kissing his scar, her actions filled with tenderness and a hint of sorrow.

After a while, her eyes reddened, "Zakky, I'll protect you from now on."

Isaac chuckled lightly, embracing her. "The priority now is to get some sleep with me." Brittany, already exhausted, found comfort in his scent and fell into a deeper sleep.
