My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1609

"Monique..."

Levi reacted swiftly. He stretched out his arms and seized her as she slipped.

He managed to prevent her from falling onto the ground. However, he had exerted too much force and together with Monique's weight; it caused her to fall back towards him. He instinctively wanted to dodge, but if he did, Monique would fall onto the rocks and would be severely injured.

Without time to consider his options, he did not budge and Monique fell on top of him.

His back hit against the hard rock. The moment Monique fell on top of him, he groaned in pain.

Monique regained her senses quickly and got up immediately. She asked anxiously, "Levi, did I hurt you?

He experienced a burning sensation of pain, most likely he was injured. However, he acted as if nothing had happened and chuckled. "Monique, who do you think you are? Do you seriously think you can hurt me?"

Judging from his expression, nothing seemed wrong, but she had put all her weight on him when she fell. Was he really all right? Monique remained suspicious and wished to take off his clothes to have a look at his back. However, she was afraid that Levi would misapprehend her intentions. Therefore, she got up quickly and inquired, "Are you really fine?"

Levi rose swiftly to his feet and didn't seem to be injured. Monique heaved a sigh of relief. "Luckily, nothing happened to you. If you are injured, I really don't know what to do."

While enduring the stinging pain, he gave a dismissive wave of his hand. "Let’s return to the campsite and help them with the pheasants. Ronald and Cecil are both clumsy. We will be forced to eat burnt pheasants if nobody is there to supervise them.

Monique chortled. "When it comes to belittling others, you are the expert."

Levi remarked, T m just stating the truth, when did I belittle anyone?"

To him, Cecil and Ronald were indeed clumsy. Although they played a role in their missions, it was wishful thinking to depend on them for smaller tasks such as preparing meals.

"All right, you are just stating the truth." Monique stole a glance at him to make sure that he was fine before she added, "I'll go and help them first."

Levi nodded.

Once she left his sight, he drew a deep breath. Monique, she must have done it on purpose. She knew that he was injured but dragged him along and he was forced to remain indifferent even though he was in pain.

"D*mned Monique, you are really the bane of my existence." Levi took off his shirt. There was something sticky on it. When he washed it with seawater, streaks of blood flowed out. It was fortunate that he was not wearing a white shirt, otherwise, concealing his injury would be impossible even if he wanted to.

The blood on his shirt indicated that the injury on his back was severe. He couldn't manage the wounds by himself, hence, he returned to the cave in which they've resided temporarily and changed his clothes. He balled his fists and muttered grudgingly, "D*mn Monique, one day I'll make you pay."
