Chapter No.30 Rescue (Final)

[Samael Ashwood's POV]

"I am here, and I won't leave you," I promised, my voice filled with determination. Sionna's tears gradually subsided as she clung to me, her trembling easing as the weight of her despair lifted slightly.

"P-Promise..." She said while tilting her head up a bit just enough for me to see her sparkling emerald green eyes glistening with tears.

"I promise," I said, my voice firm with conviction. "We'll get you out of here and find a new home-"

"NOOO!!! I want to stay with you... you said you won't leave me..." She shouted the first part in panic and again started crying after saying the latter part in a softer, more vulnerable tone. Her desperation tugged at my heart, and I could see the depths of her loneliness and fear.
