~{EMELDA'S POV}~
*
In silence, Lord Lanzon and I stepped out of his room and walked side by side. I didn't even glance at him because I felt he wouldn't like it, especially after his short display.
Well, it was worrisome but I understand. And when we began to head down a flight of stairs, I noticed he stopped in his tracks and it made me face him in confusion.
He was staring into space but the moment he sensed my gaze on me, he looked at me.
"With what happened in my room, it gives me more reason to make you mine."
At his words, I gulped, not in fear but in anticipation. And then he moved and when I was about to move as well, he took my hand in his firm grip and it caught me by surprise. I even stopped in my tracks as I looked at our linked hands.
I didn't even know how long I was staring at our hands until I looked at him and found him smiling down at me.
"You're adorable when you are caring," he said all of a sudden and I blinked in surprise.
Adorable? What?
