The King’s Possession
Unlike Tai, he leaves his deep bronze locks plastered to his forehead, water dripping down his cheekbones and along his jawline.
"Only on what I've experienced myself. I used to play in cave systems when I was younger, but none with this much water," I admit, motioning around us.
Tai winces, pulling back from touching one of the vines. "I'm imagining that's how the Beast gets around...does all it's killing, you know."
I release a sigh, tugging my own jacket off my shoulders. I'm glad I allowed Marek to convince me out of having to carry my own pack, as I would have surely been dragged under the surface had it still been on my shoulders.
