Bab 442: A forced promise

"Sshhhhh, calm down, my princess," Sebastian turned Elliana so that her back was facing Madeline before he stepped ahead and threw the stick away from her hand.

To say Madeline was relieved would be an understatement. For the first time in her life, she felt thankful to a vampire, much less to a royal.

"Calm down, my Cara," Sebastian said again in a gentle voice before he bent and tilted her face.

"My sweet pea, why would you let anyone disrupt your peace? My Cara's peace? Hmm?" He whispered to her before kissing Elliana right in front of Madeline.

"You are the only one in my heart," Sebastian mumbled against her lips, pulling her even closer and placing her hands flat on his chest, sighing when he felt her raging heart starting to calm down slowly.

He heard it. The things Madeline said when he arrived here and how she questioned his care and affection for his princess, he heard it all.
