I keep trying to like this but there are so many little issues each chapter like, He says she doesn't lie while using an example of her lying straight to his face, some other people ruined those clothes. Why would anyone attack them who doesn't know about this expedition, isn't it called "the hunt" and a massive deal that lasts about a year.
Why did he pick her up and hold her so close, he's not aware of any feeling for her other than "she's one of mine" if that's true would he pick up anyone else like that, say a male guard. Where did trigger go, he just left her there in the dirt, didn't even check on her? Anyways, I still hope the flow gets better
