[Bonus chapter] She Is Behaving Odd!

"Are you afraid that I will kill you one day too?" 

She held her dress tightly in her hands as her eyes flickered. If he would have asked the question when they were seated in the carriage, she would have felt some hesitation.

But so many things happened since then, if she would still doubt them then wouldn't she be insulting the hands that had tried to hold her in adversity!

Could she be this ungrateful to still doubt him!

"No! I am not afraid that you would kill me! In fact, I am sure that you will protect me till the end!" his eyes flickered when he heard her words.

It was not fake words of flattery which she often spouts to save herself from his ire but these words have sincerity! A belief that he would never hurt her.

If only she knew his thoughts just a while ago! A wary smile formed on his face but she was not able to see it since he had his back on her side.
