Helanie:
The way Emmet gently tapped on my shoulder to get my attention and then boldly asked me to follow him made my heart flutter. I was so annoyed by the fact that I felt drawn towards all of them. And at the moment, I was actually not doing okay. After Norman did all that, I was in a different zone. Even the thought of standing in front of Norman again made me blush and bite the inside of my cheek. I hoped he understood how his one move had excited me so much.
But now I followed Emmet outside, worried about what had happened.
"Firstly, congratulations," he stated, fixing his coat and looking around with his eyebrows scrunched.
"Emmet, what is that?" I pointed at the blood on his shirt instead of responding to his congratulations. I couldn't stop myself from being worried about him when I saw the stains.
"Oh, these—," he looked down and touched them with his fingertips, "killed some Zharns on the way here."
