As I turned, the only reason I didn't set the face on fire immediately was because I recognized it.
But before I could say his name, he covered my mouth and muffled my voice.
My brows drew together, questioning without words.
He pulled me deeper into the forest, away from the caravan, then climbed a tree and hauled me up with him. He was adept at it — I never would've managed without his help.
He settled onto a branch like it was home, folded his arms, and looked down at the caravan below.
'So that's how he saw me… but even Kassie didn't notice?'
Maybe there hadn't been any hostility from him. Still…
I focused on him first, glanced down at the caravan, then brought my eyes back to hold his green and red heterochromatic gaze.
"What happened here?"
Levi's expression turned bitter. He shifted his focus from the caravan below to me.
"It's a mess. What happened to you? Tristan and Nisha had gone searching."
I sighed, feeling chagrined.
