Chapter 106

• Warmth caressed her face. Anna slowly opened her eyes and saw fire brighten up her blurry vision. It took a moment for her eyes to focus, but she saw Lucas adding logs to the growing fire. His shadows flickered across the walls around them like art. Anna blinked a few times and realized they were inside… some sort of cave?
• Anna tried to sit up, his coat fell off her shoulders and she went to grip it but her numb fingers couldn’t get a proper hold on it. Lucas lifted his head to look at her. His sleeves were pushed up to his elbows and he looked as if he was actually sweating from the fire. She had never felt such envy for someone being warm. How was it possible?
• “Stay still. You’re not warm enough yet.” Lucas said as if it was a command. It only made Anna want to disobey him and sit up anyway. He let out a frustrated breath and dropped the rest of the logs and went to her. “Do you know how long it took to find you? You’re frozen.”
