Bab 224: It's true, I am that girl.

Sebastian walked inside the room after their meeting and looked at the princess who was sprawled on the bed like a starfish.

She really has no sense of security whatsoever. He sighed before he picked her in his arms and laid her properly, placing a pillow under her head.

So calm and serene. That's how she was looking right now, and he sighed. No one was ready to agree that Elliana was the same girl who went there to protect them, and though every reasoning was saying that she couldn't be there, his heart was telling him that it was her only.

There is no way he can mistake her presence with someone else. 

"What are you hiding from me, princess? If you are strong, you are strong. Why do you feel the need to hide it from me? What are you scared of?" Sebastian whispered before kissing her forehead.
