Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Nyla felt pain coursing through every part of her body. It took her several minutes to catch her breath.

She leaned against the tree to stand up slowly, her face pale. Her clothes were torn from the thorns, leaving her looking ragged and disheveled.

The cave entrance was on a slope and mostly hidden by vegetation. If she hadn't been in the right position, she would have completely missed it.

Her foot had already twisted when she fell, and moving now sent sharp pain shooting through her. But she had no choice-she needed to see. Clutching the bushes, she slowly made her way toward the cave entrance.

As she approached, she noticed the bushes rustling.
