Chapter 27: Alone
His deep baritone voice slipped into her mind, "You are safe little one. Do not fret anymore."
She nodded, her face buried in the soft fur of his neck.
He was on the ground, supporting her.
Her scent still radiated shock and he growled again to comfort her.
She closed her eyes and breathed.
"I'm fine."
His voice held no emotions as he asked, "Why did you attempt to fight? Surely your family would be devastated if you died."
She shrugged, "What family? I don't have one. I live alone with Kaede."
He felt the loneliness she tried to hide.
A.N: I'm sorry for not updating yesterday. My dad yelled at me for no reason and I went to bed crying, so a depressed me means no updates. Hey, we can't all win. But I truly am regretful for the delay. I also wanted to thank you guys for the awesome reviews, and I am getting back to all of you. I just find it rude when people don't respond to a review. So I do. It may take some time, but I WILL WRITE ON ALL YOUR WALLS!
CAUSE I AM JUST THAT AWESOME….
Anyways, do review.
