? Sarah, Sarah...

After repeating his name several times, Cole couldn't help clutching his chest.

In fact, it was very strange. Usually, after an orc courted a female, the imprint would appear on the orc's chest, representing that the orc was willing to sacrifice his life for that female, but his own imprint was on the female named Sara.

Could it be that Sarah took the initiative to pursue her?

Few females will actively pursue such a beautiful and dangerous female, is it really their partner?

However, Sarah looked into her eyes, which were cold and emotionless, and she had no impression at all.

I had no choice but to feel distressed, stunned for a long time, and then sighed.

Afterwards, Cole turned around and couldn't help but look at the body of the lizard orc who was killed by one blow on the ground. It seemed that the silver orc was also very powerful.

And he was a slave.

Also, his name is Sara... the Patriarch.

Patriarch?

Sarah is the patriarch?Which tribe's patriarch?Is the patriarch there actually a female?

A series of questions arose in my heart, and finally I lowered my head and thought about it carefully. Sarah really gave off a very imposing feeling, not like a weak female, but very dangerous.Thinking about it this way, it's understandable that he is the patriarch, but... the disgust he showed towards the orcs came from the bottom of his heart, even if he smiled, he could feel it.

But not quite the same for myself.

It's not love, and it's not family affection, it's like... a game that's just tasted.

Maybe not.

Cole shook his head, maybe it was just his wild thoughts, and just as he stood there in a daze, someone grabbed his arm from behind.

The visitor was panting heavily, sweating profusely but with an angry expression, staring at his golden eyes, anxious and worried, he shouted loudly: "Didn't I tell you not to come to the woods?!" His His fingers trembled slightly, his palms were covered with sweat, and when he looked up, his forehead hair was also wet with sweat.

"Ley." Calling the other person's name.

Frowning, Ley glanced at Cole several times, but didn't reply, but looked him up and down. After confirming that Cole was fine, he turned around and grabbed Cole's hand, and said angrily, "You know when When I came home and found you were not in the house, how scared I was! Especially... looking for your smell, all I smelled was blood along the way!"

The smell of blood?

Cole looked at the corpse not far away, understood, shook his head lightly and said, "Ah, I didn't kill that, I didn't do anything."

"Then what are you doing here?" Turning his head, he complained.

"Yes……"

"It's too dark, go home first, we'll talk when we get home." Interrupting Cole, Ley carefully took Cole's hand, turned around, and held it very tightly, as if afraid of losing Cole .

Seeing this, Cole could only nod his head, and followed behind without making a sound.

Silently following Ley all the way, Cole was thinking about meeting Sarah just now.

As he walked, Cole couldn't help asking, "Ley, do I have a partner?"

At this moment, Leihuo stopped in his tracks. After a while, he looked back at the suspicious Cole with an indescribably complicated expression. Then he turned around slowly and replied softly, "Ah."

Opening his eyes wide, Cole hurriedly asked, "Then where is he now?"

"Missing." Rey replied without any consideration, and Ley squeezed Cole's hand slightly, and continued to move forward.

"Missing?"

"Well, missing." After saying this, Ley tightened his eyes.

And Cole didn't ask any more.

After returning home in silence with each other, Ley put a moonlight leaf into the water, and the room lit up immediately, and then Ley was ready to go back to the room.

"Ley." Called out to Ley.

Stopping, Ley turned back: "What's wrong."

"You at night..." After thinking about it silently, Cole still asked, "Where did you go at night?" Then he raised his red eyes and looked straight at the person opposite.

Ley shook his head and smiled, and said softly, "Why do you ask these things?"

"I've been looking for you." Cole stood up and walked to Ley.

Somewhat dazed, Ley fixedly looked at Cole in front of him: "You went to the forest just to find me?"

"Otherwise is there another reason?" Shaking his head, Cole thought about it, raised his eyes and said, "I don't know what's wrong with you going to the forest so late, but the forest at night is very dangerous. If it's not necessary, I still hope You can go again during the day."

Smiling wryly, Ley nodded and replied, "I see."

"..." I wanted to say something, but I didn't know what to say.

Can't get one step closer, maybe not even qualified to preach.

Sometimes Ley seems to be very close to him, but the closer he is to him, he can feel his invisible defense.

Ley seemed to keep a distance from himself intentionally.

Then Ley walked back, leaving only Cole standing there, glancing at the moonlight leaves beside him, he sighed, then walked to the door, raised his head quietly, looked at the dark sky, somehow, today Not a single star can be seen at night.

On the other side of the dark night, it was full of blood.

Sara looked down at the scattered corpses on the ground, then smiled coldly, squinted her eyes, and said to the silent and cold white orc behind her: "I never thought that Siegel would send so many people here... ..." With a snort, Sara said coldly as if talking to herself, "How could he do what he wished."

The silver-white figure quietly obeying behind him did not move.

"He is Adoma's child, and Siegel should be a bit jealous."

Looking back, Sarah raised her eyebrows, suddenly smiled coldly, and said with a cold tone in her eyes: "It's ridiculous, Siegel is nothing to be afraid of." Then the pair of purple eyes that seemed to have seen through everything were slightly closed, and they looked directly at Silver. The white orc's unruffled eyes revealed a sly smile, "However, for you, meeting him... should be very touching."

"No." The answer was soft and completely emotionless.

"Really?" Walking in, Sarah pinched the orc's chin fiercely, with a cold smile in her eyes.

"I am only loyal to the patriarch." The silver-white orc's eyes were still flat, and his voice was cold, like ice and snow without temperature.

"Hmph." With a cold snort, Sarah let go of him and left.

And at that moment, the cold eyes turned back quietly, looking at a certain place in the forest, deep in the pupils, slowly revealing a touch of imperceptible emotion.

Turning over and waking up, it was already afternoon, and he patted his brain, which was still not awake. Cole looked out of the room, and Lay was carefully mending something. There was a soft light on his face.

Gentle and warm.

For a moment, my heart beat.

Cole couldn't help walking to Ley, but at this moment, Lay bit off the thread, raised his chin, looked at the blushing Cole, squinted and smiled, "Are you awake?"

Blushing slightly, Ke Ermu nodded, and then looked at the clothes in Ley's hands.

Seeing Cole's gaze, Ley smiled, and said in a low voice, "I found it a little torn when I got up in the morning, so I helped to mend it. I have nothing to do anyway."

"Do you often do these things?" Cole asked in a low voice, facing the golden streak.

Shrugging helplessly, Ley stood up, smiled softly, rubbed Cole's head lovingly, and said jokingly: "Because there is no one, but if you want to do it for me in the future, I have no objection."

"no problem."

"Ah?" Ley was stunned, and stopped working.

Cole was not joking. In fact, he felt that it was nothing to do such a thing, so he nodded again and said seriously: "Let me do these things in the future. Anyway, Ley doesn't allow me to go to the woods. I just happen to be at home to take care of housework. What."

Unexpectedly, Ley laughed out loud.

"Hahahahaha──" laughed hysterically.

"What are you laughing at?" Cole was puzzled.

Rubbing the corners of his eyes that were crying from laughter, Ley couldn't help but went up and patted Cole on the shoulder, then grinned and said, "Because I was a little surprised to hear the orcs say that, but..." After a pause , Ley bowed his head and chuckled, "It's just you, it must be fine."

"Actually, you don't want me to go to the forest." Cole asked.

"No, I'm not one for compliments."

"But you're just saying compliments now."

He chuckled a few times and gently touched the fingers on his shoulders, but Ley stopped talking.

It has to be said that Cole unexpectedly got started with housework.

Maybe it was because I liked it very much.

While cleaning the room, Cole thought, and then came to Ley's room, there was nothing else in his room, only some bottles and jars and some dried herbs, the fragrance of herbs filled the room, Carefully wiping the medicine bottles clean, Cole suddenly found a bottle of Moonlight Leaf by his hand.

Pick up a piece and put it on the tip of the nose for a faint fragrance.

What makes Cole feel strange is that this smell is not very similar to the smell he usually smells at night. The usual smell is a little sweet, but maybe it changes the smell after being put in water. Cole thought so, and then Slowly lower the leaves.

Then he saw a small piece of bloody cloth under Rye's bed.

Like a bandage or something.

Cole squatted down, picked it up, looked at it again and again, and then looked inside, and there was a pile of bloody cloth strips, especially some, the blood on them was still wet, and his fingers felt wet when touched.

Ley hurt?

Cole grabbed the cloth strip in shock, then got up, and began to notice the herbs that Ley put on the table, all of which were used to stop bleeding and heal wounds.

He couldn't help but clutch the bloody cloth tightly.

Ley came back at dusk. After seeing Cole at the door, the figure who came back late against the setting sun showed a quiet smile, then walked in, put down the basket on his back, reached out and stroked Cole's cheek, and smiled. Said: "Why are you so unhappy?"

Looking at the unchanged face, Cole stared blankly at Ley, then suddenly grabbed Ley's wrist touching his cheek.

"Come in with me," Cole said, and walked into the house.

However, after entering the room, Cole didn't know how to speak. He just held Ley's hand and looked at each other.

Facing the redness, Ley saw that Cole had something on his mind, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

"Ley..."

"Ok?"

"you……"

They looked at each other, but looked at each other silently, feeling timid.

After a pause, looking at those bright and gentle eyes, Cole hesitated for a while, then shook his head, and said softly, "No, it's nothing."

In fact, I just don't know how to ask.

Because he didn't know if he was qualified to say this. After all, he didn't know his relationship with Ley at all. Although Ley was sometimes ambiguous, he always kept a distance, and the tenderness in his eyes was so real, like tentacles Reachable, but when he wanted to get closer, Ley would back away.

Then he looked at himself with this blunt and helpless expression.

For nearly a month here, the two have maintained this hazy relationship.

So Cole couldn't ask, so he let go of Ley's wrist angrily. Seeing the basket he put at the door, Cole went out to get it.

And Ley just watched Cole's actions lightly, without saying a word.

"I'll go cook." Cole clapped his hands and said after putting away his things and passing by Ley.

Ley didn't object. He stood behind the simple kitchen and stared quietly forward. The dim yellow light reflected on Cole's black hair. The shadow of the sun.

He looked at his back, full of thoughts, but he couldn't help but want to stretch his fingers, but he slowly retracted the moment he was about to touch Cole.

Damn cowardly.

Ley tilted his head, mocked himself, looked at the floor, and said, "It was cleaned very well."

"I got used to it by accident, even I couldn't think of it myself." While stirring the food in the stone pot, Cole found that he could even cook very easily, so he turned around and smiled slightly, "Maybe I'm born to do these things too." uncertain."

The aroma in the pot began to diffuse.

"Well, maybe." With a low laugh, Ley slowly closed his eyes.

Later, gently, Cole turned around and asked in a low voice, "By the way, Ley, do you...have any plans for the future?"

"In the future?" Ley was taken aback, "Why do you ask this?"

With a wry smile, Cole turned around and said, "You can't stay here with me forever."

The sound was very soft, accompanied by the sound of water boiling in the pot and the crackling of firewood.

"Don't you want to be with me?" Ley asked after a long time. ?
