Chapter 549

Catelyn wanted to focus on the voice, but her eyelids felt heavy, and she eventually closed her eyes.

Still, the voice lingered in her heart.

Cedrick carried Catelyn all the way to safety. They ran into another group of assassins along the way, and the two

worked together to defeat them using the swamps around them. However, Cedrick's wound reopened once again

because of the fight, and his face, especially his lips, was as pale as a ghost due to blood loss.

She had never seen him in such a vulnerable state before, and it was hard not to worry about him.

She trembled as she removed the bullet from his back and sighed in relief the moment the bullet dropped to the

ground, despite still feeling worried.

She reached up to wipe her forehead and realized her entire face was covered in sweat.

The sky turned dark and Cedrick was resting against a tree, shivering in the cold.

Catelyn gritted her teeth and crawled up to run into a bush nearby before returning with some herbs and twigs.

There was water on the twigs, so it was hard to make a fire out of the ones she gathered. It took her a lot of time

and effort to finally build a small fire.

She chewed the herbs so that they became a paste and applied it gently onto Cedrick's wound.

Cedrick hummed in a rather seductive manner from the discomfort but did not open his eyes in the process.

Catelyn wondered if he had lost consciousness.

"Don't you die on me, Cedrick Mason..." She reached out to touch his forehead and was shocked by his

temperature.

She ran to a small pond nearby through the darkness and wiped his forehead, arms, and chest repeatedly.

Though Cedrick was running a fever, he had not lost consciousness and could distinctly sense her hands moving

around on him. His lips curled into a faint smile when he heard her helpless mumbles.

Catelyn traveled back and forth in the woods restlessly, stumbling and falling countless times in between before his

temperature finally went back to normal.

In her dazed state, she could sense something warm on her lips, but she had lost all her strength from all the hassle

and she felt as though she was stepping on clouds, so she did not resist.

Cedrick planted a gentle kiss on her lips and stared endearingly at her.

Her face was covered in dirt and sweat with countless tiny cuts that were presumably caused by the leaves and

twigs along the way. The fire had gone out, and she was curled up into herself, shivering.

He slowly wiped the dirt on her face away, his eyes glittering with emotions.

He knew that she was only harsh with her words but not in her heart. If she truly wanted to save herself, she could

have left him.

Unfortunately, they were stuck in an area without signal, so he could not reach Alex or Charles. However, he was in

no hurry to leave and enjoyed spending time alone with Catelyn.

He moved her slightly so that she could rest comfortably against his chest.

The next morning, Catelyn woke up from a nightmare and looked up to find Cedrick's eyes staring down at her.

She froze for a moment before grabbing his arm and exclaiming, " Cedrick? Are you okay now?!"

Overjoyed, she did not notice the fact that she had been sleeping in his arms.

"Even my reaper was touched by how much you care about me, so he let me come back." Cedrick tightened his

arms around her and ducked down to capture her lips.
