Capítulo 127: Merry Christmas

Shadow looked at her in total silence while he found his own fingers wrapping around hers as he softly pulled her hand away from his coat.

"Do you trust me, Princess?" He asked her as he moved a little closer to her. He let out a very small amount of his energy that immediately surrounded the two of them, helping Emily to calm down without her knowing about it.

The girl was silent for a few seconds as she looked into his amber eyes, trying to find the answer to the question that had suddenly taken over her mind.

She found herself slowly nodding her head in reply to his question. She did trust him....more than she should. And the question was - why? Why did she trust him, a stranger, so much?

"Then, believe me, I won't let anything happen to you. Even though I won't be here with you physically but that can't stop me from protecting you. Trust me, Princess. I won't let anything happen to you. I promise."
