"You're awake?"
Maximus grunted as he blinked weakly until his vision grew clearer. What welcomed his eyes were the pair of green gazing down at him. Aries was squatting beside him while he was laying down on the grass where he fought Abel.
"What are you…" Maximus propped his elbow against the floor, assisting himself to sit up. When he raised his head, he looked around at the vast expanse. Abel was nowhere in sight.
All there was Aries, squatting down beside him. Deep lines resurfaced in between his brows as he set his eyes back to Aries, frowning deeply. Meanwhile, her brows simply rose as they locked eyes with each other.
"Are you happy now?" he asked, almost scoffing in ridicule.
"Are you?" Aries cocked her head to the side, blinking almost innocently. "You can't stand against Wrath. Not in a one-on-one battle."
Maximus smirked, looking at her up and down. "I hurt him and that's all that matters."
