They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 355

Chapter 354: Her Transformation

Somto emerged with quiet grace, the type that commanded respect without demanding it. He still hadn’t let go of Nnenna’s hand.

Nnenna followed, her feet touching the palace grounds for the first time in weeks, but her mind was elsewhere. The moment Somto stepped out, she had expected him to release her, especially now that they were back in the full glare of Lionara’s court.

But no, his hand remained clasped around hers, as though it were a lifeline. The situation, already weird back in Purlit, had slid into the realm of the abnormal, and now, she could no longer deny that it was bordering on the downright creepy.

Why the hell won’t he just let go? she thought, but she said nothing.

There was something off, not dangerous, but unsettling. She could feel it. It was not dominance or obsession in his grip. It was fear.

At first, it shocked her. Why would someone like Somto, the silent storm of Lionara, the man who had just put an entire kingdom back in order without breaking a sweat, why would he be afraid?

Then she realized, it was not fear for himself.

It was fear of losing her.

She did not know how or why she understood that. But the panic in his knuckles when she tried to gently pull away, or how tense he grew during the rare moments she left his side, like bathroom breaks, told her more than any words could.

He was terrified… that if he let her go, he might never get her back.

But why would he be afraid of losing her?
