Chapter 1548


    "What kind of nightmare?" Elliot kept his hand on the jacket.


    "It''s a weird dream so | don''t dare to talk about it," she scowled.


    "It''s just a dream. It''s not real." He hesitated and said, "Was it about what happened in Ylore?"


    She nodded, before shaking her head. "| dreamt about Jed. | used to be quite close with him. Though we hadn''t contacted one


    another for a few years, | felt the same when | saw him again; but in my dream just now, he was the viin.”


    "The viin? What did he do in your dream?


    "He tried to stop us from being together. In that dream, he was on Ruby''s side." Her blood ran cold as she spoke, "That’s not


    Jed. He would never side with Ruby! He is my friend, and if he-"


    "Calm down, Avery. Dreams are not real. He was not a bad person; if he was, he


    wouldn''t have been killed." Elliot helped her back to the bed. "What do you feel like eating? I''ll go buy it for you."


    "| said | don''t want you to."


    "| don''t want you to starve." He looked at her sternly. "I have just got in from the outside, and it''s really not that cold."


    “Alright, let''s go out together then." Not feeling the urge to go back to sleep, she grabbed her jacket and headed out with him. "I


    don''t have anything specific in mind so let''s just grab whatever is avable! How did Ben get back?"


    "I called him a taxi.”


    The two exited the mansion and stepped into the cold, dark night.


    "This isn''t cold?" Avery wrapped her arm around his waist and pressed herself against his body.


    He held her and chuckled. "It''s alright. It''s not cold when you are with me."


    "It''s no wonder | don''t feel hungry after drinking water," she said. "They say one would feel full even by just drinking water when


    in love."


    "| shouldn''t have forgotten to bring you food," he deadpanned.


    "| already said that it''s okay. You don''t have to apologize to me." She grinned and asked, "What did you and Ben talk about?" "He


    said that he regrets wasting so much time on Chelsea and that he would give up if Lilith keeps stringing him on." He picked out


    parts of the conversation that he could share with her. "He drank quite a lot but didn''t get drunk. | told him to rest at our ce but


    he insisted on going back to Lilith’s."


    "Seems like they are getting along well.”

    "That''s good. It would be better if Lilith likes him, too."


    "You don''t know how she feels?"


    Avery shook her head. "She hasn''t told me about it. She is so focused on thepetition right now. | don’t think she has time to


    consider anything else." When Ben arrived at Lilith''s ce, it was eleven at night. The lights in the living room were on
