Upon parting, Millie promised to prove ownership of Swan Kiss, stoking Marcus’ concern. Thus, he called upon Harlan to discreetly safeguard her.

In this fleeting moment, Millie’s abdomen voiced its opinion with a gentle rumble, a quiet testament to her body’s plea for nourishment.

Clearly, hunger had ccalling.

Without delay, she shielded her belly, feeling a blush of embarrassment.

“Let us adjourn for supper.”

Upon reaching the eatery, Marcus requisitioned a secluded alcove.

Subsequent to the culinary indulgence shared by the trio, a meaningful exchange passed between Harlan and Marcus, culminating in their withdrawal from the dining chamber.

Leaning against the balcony’s rail, they commenced a private dialogue.

Marcus’ gaze alighted upon Harlan, discerning something seemed to cloud his mind.

Harlan, after a contemplative pause, spoke forth.

“My intervention proved pivotal. Might you consider this a debt incurred?”

This entreaty from Harlan bore an unusual timbre. Heretofore, he’d never broached such terms, even when rescuing Millie.

Marcus perused Harlan, assessing him with a comprehensive sweep before subtly altering his stance.

“Naturally.”

A semblance of relief crept into Harlan’s visage. From his pocket, he withdrew a scarlet ribbon.

“Derek’s peril hasn’t eluded me. Nonetheless, when I locate Mavis, I implore your assent to my dealings with her.”

Conscious of Marcus’ apprehensions regarding Derek’s convalescence, Harlan perceived the justness in Marcus’ desire to exact justice upon Mavis.

The enigma of Mavis’ whereabouts persisted, despite Harlan’s clandestine quest for her. Nary a whisper heralded news of her.

It transpired that Harlan’s entreaty was driven by Mavis‘ interests.

Derek’s injury weighed heavily on Marcus’ mind, yet Millie’s safety couldn’t be disregarded.

Marcus’ profound gaze traversed the expanse of Harlan’s form, a scrutiny laden with unspoken comprehension. Upon witnessing that his thoughts had been laid bare, Harlan’s gaze retreated from Marcus’.

“A palpable unease pervades. Resolutions concerning her fate shall crystallize once her location is known, unveiling the mystery.”

Marcus chuckled with a mirthful resonance, prompting Harlan to segue from the subject at hand.

“Millie’s prowess as a nimble sprinter and her robust physical constitution are qualities that might well prove fortuitous on Raven Island.”
