The next day, early morning.

Rhett looked at Sabrina lovingly, she's still sleeping deeply beside him. "My love, wake up... I'm leaving after a few minutes," he said, gently caressing her arms to wake her up.

Sabrina's eyelids fluttered. "It's morning already?" she asked, rubbing her eyes.

"Yup! I want to travel early so that I can return before nightfall," Rhett explained.

"Okay, I'll get up now," Sabrina replied.

A few minutes later, they were on their way to the toilet.

Then they returned to the chamber and Rhett donned a coat on his body.

Done dressing, Rhett looked at Sabrina. "Come with me to the entrance of the cave," he said.

They left the chamber holding hands.

Outside the entrance of the cave, the sun was yet about to appear on the horizon.

The couple looked at each other.

Sabrina didn't try to hide the fear and sadness flashing in her eyes. "Take care of yourself out there..." she said, misty-eyed.

Rhett sighed after noticing the sadness in Sabrina's eyes. "My love, don't be sad. I'll return here tonight, promise!" he said and hugged her tightly.

Sabrina holds the tears from falling on her face. "I'm okay. You may go now," she said. She can't understand herself, she feels like she doesn't want him to go. But she can't stop him now, they already agreed on him going home last night. There's no reason to worry.

"I love you so much, always remember that!" Rhett said.

"I do! Take care of yourself. By the way, how are you gonna go home?" she asked, confused.

"I will transformed myself into my wolf form, its easier to navigate the forest in my animal form. Besides, the valley is near here - just six kilometres away, not that far. I can easily reached our home walking or sprinting non stop through the forest in one houre, more or less," Rhett replied.

"Ah, okay..." Sabrina kissed his lips. "I love you, come back soon!" she said.

Rhett smiled and embraced her again. "Bye my love, see you tonight!" he said and exited the cave.

Sabrina watched as Rhett walked towards the wooded area, he waved at her then resumed walking... slowly disappearing from her sight.

The moment she no longer saw Rhett's shadow - fat tears rolled on her face. She didn't bother to wipe them away. She wanted to cry... and cry hard she did.

She lowered herself on the ground and sobbed uncontrollably. Her body shook with grief.

Amara left her chamber and walked towards the entrance. She found Sabrina crying helplessly while sitting in the corner. She sat beside her and patted her head. "Stop crying, your lover will return soon!" she said in a soothing voice trying to calm the crying girl.

Sabrina continues crying despite Amara's effort to pacify her.

"Where is Rhett's hometown?" Amara asked, trying to strike a conversation with her.

"His family and relatives lives in the Golden Peak Valley," Sabrina replied.

"Ah, okay... not far from here. He can easily return here before the night comes," Amara commented casually. She still want to stay with Sabrina at the entrance of the cave but she saw Grandma Azere approaching the cave in the distance. She quickly stood up. "I'm going to take a pee in the toilet," she said.

"You want me to go with you?" Sabrina offered.

"No need. I can take care of myself," Amara said, refusing her offer by leaving immediately.

A few minutes later.

Azere arrived at the cave.

Sabrina looked at her and smiled, she conveyed her greetings. "Good morning, Grandma!" she said cheerfully, masking her sadness.

Azere placed the basket on the rock and studied Sabrina's swollen eyes. She suspected that the wolf was already gone. "Did Rhett start his journey already?"

Sabrina nods her head. "Yes. He left a few minutes ago," she answered.

"I see... don't be sad. Rhett will return soon," Azere assured her. "Where is Amara?" she asked.

"She's here a while ago but went to the toilet," Sabrina replied.

"I put a bracelet in the basket. Can you give the bracelet to Amara and tell here that it's a gift from me," Azere said.

"Okay," Sabrina said with a nod of her head. "Grandma, do you want to talk to her? I'll go and tell her to come here," she said.

"No need. Just give her the bracelet and tell her that I want to see her at noon wearing my gift," Azere replied.

Sabrina's brows knitted together in bewilderment. "Grandma, why are you giving Amara a bracelet?" she asked, confused.

"I just want to know what kind of person Amara is. I want to know if she is human or a creature different from us," Azere replied.

A frown appeared on Sabrina's head. "Huh? She looks every inch human to me. Are you suspecting her true identity?"

"Well... you can't blame me. I just want you to be surrounded with people that you can be safe with. Rhett is harmless... I'm not sure with Amara. Did the girl tried to harm you in the past?"

Sabrina shook her head and replied, "Not even once. She's friendly towards me, she treated me nicely."

"Ah, okay. Just tell her to wear the bracelet when she will see me this noon. And tell her to stop avoiding me as if she's guilty already," Azere said calmly.

Sabrina's brows knitted together after hearing Grandma's words, she shoot her a quizzical look. "Grandma, what are you talking about?"

Azere sighed. "You didn't notice it? Amara is trying to avoid me," she said.

Sabrina pondered Grandma's statement for a moment and asked, "But why she's trying to avoid you?"

Azere shrugged. "I dunno know. Maybe she's hiding something-?"

Suddenly Amara comes into the view. "I'm not hiding anything... and I'm not avoiding you, Grandma," she said. "Where is the bracelet? I would love to wear anything that is given by you."

Shocked, Azere and Sabrina looked at each other.

Sabrina cleared her throat. "It's in the basket," she said and grabbed the basket from the rock.

Amara took the bracelet from the basket and picked it up when she was about to wear it, the bracelet suddenly fall apart and the small beads scattered into the ground. "Oops, I'm sorry Grandma, the bracelet broke..." she said and picked up the beads.

Sabrina helped Amara pick up the beads from the ground.

A few minutes later, the women finished their task.

Amara put the beads in Sabrina's hands.

Sabrina looked at Azere and asked, "What are we going to do with the beads, Grandma?"

Azere sighed and shook her head. "Give it back to me..." she answered.

Sabrina placed the beads quickly into Grandma's extended hands.

Amara looked at Azere, trying hard not to stare at the invisible woman standing beside her. "Are you going to fix the bracelet for me, Grandma?" she asked curiously.

Azere smiled and fired her a question. "Do you want me to fix the bracelet for you?"

Amara smiled brightly. "Sure!"

"Alright, I'm going to fix it and give it to you later when I deliver the food here," Azere replied.

"Thank you in advance, Grandma!" Amara said merrily.

Azere smiled at Amara. "I'll take my leave now. Enjoy your breakfast, girl's..."

"Thanks Grandma!" the women replied in unison.

Amara watched Azere and the invisible woman walk away from the cave until they faded away from her eyes.

Sabrina glanced at her companion standing beside her. "Let's go back to the chamber and eat our breakfast," she said and moved forward.

Amara followed Sabrina to the chamber.

A few minutes later.

The women were eating their meals in silence.
