Chapter 514

All Alyssa could feel in the endless cold was how warm her hands were.

Jasper heid onto her hands, making sure her fingers were kept safe from the harsh

weather. It felt like the only thing keeping her near-dead nerves alive.

She leaned on his back, knowing he would keep her safe. Her fingers twitched just the

slightest in

Jasper’s grasp.

Jasper swallowed nervously. Fearing she might pull away, he tightened his grip. “Stay still.

Good girl.”

His back was hurting like mad where the boulder had hit his spine. Still, he was doing a

good job of hiding

his pain. He didn’t want her to worry.

Just this once, Jasper wanted her to know she could rely on and be safe with him.

“Ugh… It’s cold. Hurry up then…” Alyssa grumbled.

“Hold on a bit longer. We should be able to find shelter soon.” Every breath Jasper took

evaporated into

mist.

“What if we don’t?”

Before Jasper could stop himself, he responded, “Then you can take shelter in my arms.”

H

“No!” Alyssa whined. “Don’t you dare try and take advantage of me!”

Jasper smiled. Though she wasn’t staying very still, he still could support her weight. Even

his heart felt

warm and glad for this moment with her.

He should really focus on finding shelter for them, though. It was not like she could run

away from him

right now.

The two stayed close to one another, their breathing and heartbeats nearly in sync.

It was as if time had turned back to 13 years ago-the only change being that Alyssa was

no longer the

young girl he had met. She had even married him and been his wife for three years.

Meanwhile, Sean had rushed back to the base camp with only an umbrella for protection

from the rain,

having been worried about Alyssa.

Upon his arrival, he was soaked through with rainwater and had mud caked at the ends of

his pants.

“Ms. Alyssal’ he cried right before opening the doors.

Elijah and Xavier just so happened to walk out.

“You!” Xavier exclaimed in shock, then quickly composed himself.

“What are you… is Jasper Beckett here? Where’s Ms. Alyssa?” Sean had a nagging sense

that something

was very wrong right now,

“Quiet down, will you?” Xavier quickly shut him up. He was just as worried, but he trusted

that Alyssa

would be kept safe and protected by the forces above. He also had faith that his boss

would be able to

do the same.

“Mr. Jasper and the rest of the rangers are up in the mountains looking for Madam. I’ve

dispatched three helicopters to search for them, too, and Mr. Jasper has sworn not to come

back down

the mountain until he finds her!”

Sean couldn’t help but reel at Xavier’s words. He couldn’t believe someone as cruel as

Jasper would be

so devoted to Alyssa.

“It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have let Alice go out on the search patrol!” Elijah wailed.

“Don’t say that, sir. Have some faith in Mr. Jasper. He’s the ‘Mountain God’ for a reason,

no?”

Elijah was rendered speechless.

Xavier was really good at making the atmosphere awkward.
