Eren wanted to remain lost in that embrace with Lissana, wishing that time would stop at that precise moment and that she would never leave, that they would stay that way forever.
“I'm more selfish than I thought.”
He whispered in her ear as he, with great effort, broke the embrace.
“I really don't want you to go.”
“I'll come back.”
Those were the only words she could mutter, as her heart struggled to say she would stay and her mind contradicted it, saying those feelings weren't real, that as Eren had mentioned, it was all the work of the bond that united them.
“See you soon, Lissana.”
“See you soon.”
Lissana turned around and crossed the entrance of the palace.
Dantriel had seen them, though he had kept his distance until Lissana walked away.
“Were you saying goodbye?”
Eren jus
