It was the same pair of hands with which Mitshua was held countless times the past few days.

But the warmth they offered was something beyond words.

Today, there was no disgust in her as she let those hands hold her firmly.

"Elandor?"

"Shhhhh."

"Leave everything to me."

She was afraid that Elandor would leave her too, feeling desperate she nestled her head deeper in his neck.

"Leave her, she belongs to me."

"Trash", speaking in a tone as if I was seeing a scum I kicked him.
