Reiner - Secret Desire

“Her injuries from the fire aren’t as bad as you think. The doctors also think that she will wake up soon. She’s just suffering from shock and there shouldn’t be anything really wrong with her brain,” Zak said as he approached Natalia’s bed and stood next to it.

“I see…” Reiner murmured. He wasn’t exactly relieved.

“I know what you’re thinking and you’re right. The fire wasn’t a mere accident. Edward and I have been investigating with our teams,” Zak said solemnly.

“Arson…” Reiner whispered.

“Yup. I’m convinced that it’s arson, but I don’t have solid proof right now,” Zak said before pressing his lips into a thin line.

“I see…” Reiner said softly.

Both men stood next to each other in silence for a while as they both looked down at Natalia’s partially bandaged face. Their minds filled with their own thoughts and emotions. However, it was Reiner who spoke up first.

“Why did you send me the message?” Reiner asked.
