Love Unspoken

Quinn was floored for a sec and had to admit, Alexander was making a lot of sense.

Abigail was totally under Landon's thumb, and even if she busted out, she couldn't save her. But just hanging around this forest with him every day? No way. "She's safe for now, so chill. I'll figure a way out soon," Alexander said.

Hearing that, even though she didn't wanna get too chummy with him, Quinn couldn't help but check out his face.

She stared at him for a while, not sure what to say, then turned and walked out of the cave.

The forest was getting dark, with a gentle breeze rustling the leaves and grass.

Unable to sleep and feeling cramped in the cave, she found a relatively clean spot to sit down. Alexander followed her out and used a branch to start a fire. The firelight lit up their faces.

"Bored?" he asked.

Quinn looked at him and shot back, "Aren't you?"Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Not even a little," he said, staring at her. Quinn knew what was coming next and quickly cut him off, "There's nothing here, nothing to do. When can we get out?" "How about I show you a talent?" Alexander suddenly said.

"What talent?" Quinn asked, confused. She knew Alexander was skilled, but talents? Nah.

Alexander smirked, "How about a striptease? Interested?"

Quinn went silent.

In the firelight, her face clearly showed she was speechless.

But then again, she didn't think he'd actually do it.

"Go ahead then," she said.

"Really?" Alexander asked, looking serious.

"You said it," she shot back.

Then Alexander stood up and started unbuttoning his shirt.

Quinn's expression changed; she didn't think he was serious.

In a daze, she remembered that the current Alexander was not what he used to be; he could do anything shameless.

She quickly stopped him, "I don't wanna see it!"

"Too late. I'm already halfway," he said, undoing the second button.

Quinn felt a bit annoyed and turned her head away from him. "I was joking. Stop it, or I won't talk to you anymore!"

It wasn't that she was shy; she was afraid she'd lose control due to the effects of the drug in her body and end up doing something she'd regret.

He said the drug's effects would last half a month, and it had only been six or seven days.

Alexander paused, his eyebrows slightly raised. Looking at her flushed cheeks, he suddenly smiled after a moment.

"I was joking too," he said.

Quinn was stunned for a moment and was about to get mad when he walked towards a tree.

He raised his hand, checked out the tree for a moment, and picked a leaf.

He asked Quinn, "Know how to play this?"

Quinn shook her head. Seeing the leaf, she suddenly realized he was gonna play a tune with it.

She was super surprised that Alexander could do this.

She started imagining what kind of sound he'd make, but to her surprise, he took out a dagger, placed the leaf on the ground, and started carving on it with the tip of the knife. Quinn got even more curious.

After about ten minutes, she couldn't help but ask, "Is it done yet?"

"Almost," he said without looking up, focused on his task.

After another five minutes, he finally put down the dagger and said, "It's done."
