Felicia lifted Stephan's shirt to reveal injuries around his waist and thighs-marks from crashing into rocks in the water. The wounds had been soaked for so long that the edges were pale and looked gruesome. She knew he was hurt, but seeing it in person shocked her.

At least half of these injuries should have been on her body, or even more! She checked his pulse, furrowing her brow. She didn't have tto hesitate, quickly tearing off his clothes.

Their small fire wasn't enough, and the space was too cramped to make it larger. If the fire got any bigger, the entire cabin could catch fire.

What Stephan needed most right now was warmth.

Felicia gritted her teeth, removed her clothes, and gently pressed against him.

After the initial cold, their body heat began to transfer to each other, and the warmth was just enough for them to sigh with relief.

Tpassed-how long, she couldn't tell. The wind outside howled louder, the temperature dropping further, and the winter chill seemed to settle in the air. The fire inside had dwindled to only a few embers.

Felicia opened her eyes, put her clothes back on, and rekindled the fire.

During all this, Stephan had still not woken up.

She could only put his dried clothes back on him and, with her stomach growling, sat to one side.

Seeing him frown even in his sleep and look uncomfortable, she felt soft-hearted. She moved him onto her lap, letting him rest his head there.

When the sky fully brightened, and the sun appeared, the thin mist in the forest began to dissipate. He finally woke up.

The moment he opened his eyes, the crackling sound of burning branches filled his ears, and above him was Felicia's tired face, leaning against the wall with her eyes closed.

The woman's long lashes fluttered slightly as she slept. In the firelight, her delicate skin had a slight pink flush, and her button nose was stained with dirt. She looked a little messy but also endearing.

Stephan's gaze flickered.

He remembered fainting yesterday, and then... He felt warmth pressing against him, a trembling yet incredibly soft warmth.

His heart shook slightly, but his head ached terribly, making it hard to distinguish whether it was a dream or reality.

When Felicia felt the weight on her legs disappear, she immediately woke up. She lifted her gaze to find that he was already sitting up. She quickly asked, "You're awake? How do you feel? Letcheck your pulse." sione

She stood up, but her legs had fallen asleep from sitting for so long, As she stood, the world went black, and her legs buckled beneath her, causing her to fall forward. He reacted quickly, reaching out to catch her. She couldn't stop herself in time, and her head collided with his hard chest.

"Ouch," she groaned as her head throbbed..

Stephan grunted, his injury throbbing with pain.

Hearing him inhale sharply, Felicia immediately forgot her own pain and said nervously, "I'm sorry. Didd hurt you? I haven't treated your injuries properly. I just tied the cloth to stop the bleeding. We must find help today, or your wounds will get infected!" He hummed in response, his dark pupils reflecting her shadow as he said, "My people should be here soon." "That's great!" As soon as she spoke, the sound of a helicopter reached her ears-rescue was here!

Felicia's eyes lit up. She rushed to the cabin door and waved a branch in the open area with all her might. "Over here! Over here!"
