章 131: The Beast Tamer

*****

His eyes held a strange emotion in them; Terrence couldn't believe what he saw. His father, a man who lost the will to feel after the death of his son, now had different feelings displayed in his eyes.

Terrence could sense the fear in them, at the same time hope, dread and pain. It wasn't because of the beasts, but fears of losing another child, hope that she would be alright, dread from the tragedy that happened before and pain from the lost that once was.

He reached for his father's hand and gently patted it, twice. "Father, I know she would be alright. Avery is strong enough, nothing bad would happen to her."

King Regin only nodded at his son's encouragement. That was what he could do now, hope and he held on to that as he waited.
