You were hiding in a small space, since Cyno was looking for you. To put it simply, you were scared shitless. You were literally trying to not reveal yourself. You were dead meat if he found you.

"Dear? Where are you?" His voice rang. You felt like he was pretty close to you… oh god. Maybe you should’ve never went to the desert to explore.

You knew about his hyper fixation for you. Someone in the Akademiya told you about it. What was even the reason!? Whatever the thought, you decided to not focus on that.

Your life is literally on the line. ‘Just stay calm, relax your breath.’ is what you always told yourself in situations like this.
