---- she realised what he meant.

The worn out boys whiten shirt she had worn for days or rather months now was torn from the top.

Buttons ripped.

Her chest was choking , along with her small blossoms and she immediately wraps his jacket around her.

Warmness rushes to her ears and face.

How long has she been exposing her small tits to him? But she didnt catch him looking at them even once.

He starts walking and she got this as a clue to get up and follow him.

They walk in silence again, Alexias weariness gone now that she knew he was with her.

He would take care of those monsters if needed.

With him she doesn't have to hide in shadows or take every step forward in fear.

She could breathe again without fearing of them hearing her breaths.

She felt independent...

free.

Careless.

And it was the best feeling in months.

---- She has finally found her hero.

A rude, snobbish one at that.

But still a hero.

---- Chapter 435 Alex yawns, stretching herself.

The sun felt so good on her skin.

The warmth felt like home.

She stares at his huge back and couldn't help wonder why he didn t ask her about the panic attack Not that she wanted him to.

If there is a part of her she wants to hide from this world.

Its that.

She took a hesitant step closer, to look at his usual cold face You don't talk much, do you? No.noveldrama

Her lips twitched in a faint grin.

Good thing I do enough for both of us.

Damien's jaw tightened, but he refrained from commenting.

She studied him for a moment, her gaze soft but probing, as though trying to peel back the layers of his guarded demeanor.

---- And he was seconds away from snapping He hated it when people intruded in his life or vision.

And that birds nest of hair and dirt smeared face wasn't a very pleasing sight to take in.

Why are you like this? she asked again, unable to hold in her curiosity.

Like what? Closed off.

Distant.

Ie turned to her, his eyes sharp and unyielding And why are you so nosy? Alex laughed, the sound light and unselfconscious It's a gift.

Plus, I'm pretty good at reading people.

That's what I have did all my life.

Then you should know when to stop talking.

He gives her an irritated look and her smile faltered, but only for a second.

You must have loved ones worried about you.

What about you Family? Friends?
