Seventy four

AUTHOR'S POV:

Raven shivered uncontrollably the moment the water landed on her bare skin. She immediately tried to flee, but Tristan was standing right beside her, keeping her from doing so. He held her down by the shoulders, and she could only stand there, letting the water bounce off her hair to her whole body.

It was very chilly and felt like her whole body was being corroded. She felt heated inside but cold outside. As though she had a very bad fever.

She sucked in a breath, her teeth gnashing due to the cold and her toes curled on the floor. Her face had quickly become pale, and her lips dry. She was shivering, and her arms were wrapped around her.

Seeing her in such a pitiful state, Tristan moved closer to her, ignoring that he had just taken a bath and hugged her from behind, letting her feel bodily heat. She froze in his arms but soon relaxed, leaning against him as the water poured on them in torrents, leaving both of them cold.

It was only after more than forty-five minutes
