Chapter 608: Talia's head guard (1)

Keith, Katya, and Damon stared at Talia, all three wondering if they heard her right.

"What?", Keith asked. "Did I do something wrong?"

"No, not really.", Talia responded. "I am touched that you jeopardized yourself for me, but I don't want you to do it again."

Talia pressed her lips into a line. "I know, but… I don't see you as my guard, Keith. You are my friend, and I can't bear the sight of you getting hurt. Not for my sake."

"But I am fine."
