Olivia lured Ethan into the water.
Some flashbacks came to his mind. It was the time when he was visually impaired and Olivia kept by his side to treat him.
Now that they were back at the same place, it felt different and special.
The water rippled as Olivia began removing his clothes.
Her hands rested on his body. She whispered into his ear softly, "Relax, Ethan."
Olivia could tell that everyone was on edge ever since she was cursed, especially Ethan. Perhaps it didn't affect her that much due to her past near-death experiences. She should've died three years ago, but she managed to survive such a malable!
Every day thereafter felt like a steal to her.
Furthermore, she was able to find her true family. She didn't have any regrets in life anymore. The future no longer concerned her. All she wanted to do was to enjoy the present.
The long-lost joy kept Ethan's worries and anxiety at bay. He tightly hugged Olivia's body as if trying to be one with her. The deeply rooted fear in him felt real. It wasn't easy to find the love of his life, but she might leave his side again.
Even when the surface of the water slowly smoothed from the ripples, Ethan didn't let her go. "You have to stay alive, Liv."
Olivia gently looked into his worried gaze. Her fingertips traced his brows. "Okay."
"I want to return to Aldenvine," said Ethan softly.
Although their families weren't in Aldenvine, it was the place the two lived together. To Ethan, Aldenvine was their home.
"I'll ask someone to redecorate our marital house. Let's put up our family picture when we return home. Even if your father is going to kill me, I don't want to be separated from you again."
She chuckled at his childish tone. "Sure."
