Reiner - Torn
“I could ask you the same thing. Knight, why are you here?” Charles replied casually.
However, the way his hand tightened a little around my wrist made me aware that he too was on edge. He was shielding me behind him to keep me away from Reiner as if he was a threat to me. That was the only part that Charles got wrong. Reiner would never do me harm.
“I’m here to pick Natalia up and take her back home,” Reiner stated coldly.
His eyes searched for mine and I had to admit that I felt very torn in that situation. No matter how hard I thought, I didn’t know what was the right thing to do. I also didn’t know why Reiner turned up so suddenly to pick me up. He had not told me anything at all.
“That won’t be necessary. We’re actually on our way back. I’ll drive her back,” Charles replied casually.
