"How much longer are you going to hold on?"
Just as Su Xuan was lost in thought, Lucia's cool voice drifted to his ears.
Only then did Su Xuan realize his Dragon Claw was still gripping something soft and snow-white. At the same time, he could see the obvious anger on Lucia's beautiful face, hidden beneath her white veil.
Clearly, he had squeezed too hard and hurt her.
But it couldn't be helped. His Half-Dragon Transformation had caused his body to swell and sharp Dragon Claws to sprout, making his palm larger than Lucia's entire face.
"Sorry." He released his grip and asked, "Does it still hurt? Do you need me to..."
"There's no need."
Lucia shot Su Xuan a cold glance, then tried to stand up on her own.
But it was still a struggle, and she ended up placing a hand on Su Xuan's arm for support.
The moment her fingertips brushed against the Dragon Scales on his arm, a searing heat shot through her, making her heart race as if she'd received an electric shock.
