Chapter Thirty-Five

Aria For the past few hours, I had finished checking the borders with the help of Hunter's Gamma, I checked on the injured warriors, visited the locked buildings to see if there had been any interruption of any intruder, and paid a visit to the training center too. It turned out that Hunter had assigned his trusted fellows for the other duties before he left so that I wouldn't have to fall under any pressure of extra toils. Mom was right; Hunter was trying to be a better man for me. I had seen his efforts myself but maybe some of his deeds from the past and mistakes from the present made me disregard all of them. Currently, I was seated on a bench set closer to the garden just to give myself a few moments to enjoy the view of the sky and derive relaxation. "Hey, Aria," I heard a familiar voice and my head snapped to stare at the pathway. I saw Drake walking closer to me with a smile on his face. "Oh..hi, Drake," I smiled. "What are you doing here? enjoying the view?" He sat beside me.
