Chapter 91

"But I haven't asked about your crime yet. Why did you come here?" Elias looked at me sternly, his blue eyes as deep as the ocean floor, making me shiver. "You have seen it with your own eyes, the level of danger here no one can predict. I'll have someone take you back to your pack tonight, no arguing."

Hearing about being sent back, I firmly shook my head. "No! I don't want to go, and I want to stay here. Furthermore, I don't need a guard; on the contrary, I can help the wounded soldiers here. You can ask Thomas, I have never been a useless person. I will not be a burden to you, much less a hindrance to your hands."

"I'm not talking about that. I don't want you to be in danger." Elias frowned, his face unchanged. "I can indulge you in everything, but this is impossible."

I'm serious, and I don't agree to compromise. "I don't want you to be in danger either. I braved the danger to come here, so I didn't have to worry so much. If you keep insisting, I also have another way to escape."
