Instinctively, Raine's body moved a little closer to the source of warmth. She was weak and hurt like a broken doll.
The chill that hit Summer grew colder and colder, from the wet clothes to the deepest part of her body. She cowered there, shivering while looking coldly at the intimacy between them.
She was cold, but there was no one to hold her. She was afraid, and there was no one to pat her and say to her, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here." She was in pain, but there was no one to soothe her...
Because her husband was so affectionate with another woman that he had no time for her. He might see her as an executioner in his heart, the executioner who had hurt the woman he loved to such an extent!
She curled into a ball and kept shivering, burying her head between her knees.
Even though she did not like Baine, she was happier than anyone to see her alive.
Because if anything had happened to Baine, everyone would think that Raine died at her hands, and Raine would still be alive if she had not let go.
At least she's not dead now. The strong sense of
condemnation and guilt in her heart dissipated as well
Suddenly, a sharp pain came from her stomach.
Summer clenched her teeth, turned her back to them, and her hand fell on her belly...
However, no one would ever notice her shivering in the corner, never...
The cave was quiet most of the time, with Raine and Mark talking occasionally.
