The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian) novel Chapter 1548

Chapter 1548 You Are Late

They paired up and started exploring the place, but not long after they came in and went along the cave, they realized that the path was becoming broader and broader, and everything was becoming clearer around them.

Vivian noticed that something was wrong, and she asked, “What’s happening, Duncan? Why is the path becoming smoother all of a sudden?”

A frown appeared on Duncan’s face. He was still thinking about that question, but then he noticed a familiar scent lingering in the air, and he stopped walking for a moment.

Vivian was holding his hand, and when she realized he had stopped, she came to a halt as well. “What is it, Duncan? What happened?”

“It’s nothing. Wait right here for me. I’ll take a look over there.” He let her go and went to the spot where the scent was the heaviest.

She didn’t know what he was trying to do, but she didn’t dare move around in such an unfamiliar area, so she waited for Duncan to make his return. About five to six worrying minutes later, Duncan finally came back, much to her relief.

Vivian asked him, “What is it, Duncan? Did you find something over there?”

Duncan answered, “Yes. There’s dried sand over there. There might even be an exit too. Your brother probably left using that exit. We’d better get going right now.”

“All right then.” Vivian agreed with Duncan.

They trotted quickly along the cave, but this time, they didn’t even make five hundred meters. All of a sudden, a loud rumble was heard, and the ground started shaking violently.

Vivian was shocked by the sudden development. “What is happening, Duncan? Why is this place suddenly caving in?”

“I—” Before Duncan could even say anything, the ground they were stepping on suddenly cracked, and the two of them fell through it.

The moment Vivian fell through, a stab of pain traveled up her head from her right ankle, and everything turned black around her. Before she blacked out, her last thoughts were, This place is booby-trapped? Wait, that means Ian’s in trouble.

Kurt answered, “I will not. I’ll get some sticks to secure your leg in one place. Then I’ll prop you up and take you with me.”

Vivian protested, “Prop me up? But I don’t want to walk! I want you to give me a piggyback ride! My ankle’s hurt, and you want me to walk? How could you!”

And the girl started crying again. Even though she had grown, she was still the same little girl whenever she cried. Her tears would keep streaming down her cheeks.

Kurt could not believe what he was hearing.

That was the difference between him and the boy called Duncan. Before they came into the cave, Duncan had told Vivian to hold his waist, but she had refused. However, when Kurt said he wouldn’t even give her a ride on his back, she started crying pitifully.

Kurt’s mood was significantly lifted. He came back and picked her up from the ground instead of carrying her on his back.

Vivian said, “O-Oh, are you going to hold me like this? But I’m a heavy girl.”

Kurt answered, “It is all right. We should leave this place and find your brother right now.”

Oh, right. I have to find him. Vivian finally snapped out of her delusion, and her face was red with embarrassment. Even though the road ahead was dark, she still felt at ease. For some reason, she always felt at ease as long as Kurt was around.

“Oh, Kurt. Did you see Duncan? He fell into this place with me.”

“I did not see him.” The young man who was holding her looked as cold as ice.
