章 41: Escapee

"Miss! You're back!"

Dimitri came running to the carriage and opened the door.

"Dimitri, you don't have to do this," Alaric said. He quickly grew fond of the young boy. His enthusiasm was infectious, the brothers started training even harder since Dimitri started living there. 

By the time Dimitri woke up, Alaric and Adeline were gone. Not only them but the Marquess was gone too. At least he knew the Marquess was leaving, seeing the two of them missing he panicked. He was too afraid of something happening to the people close to him, he was afraid of being left alone again. Thankfully, Aaron told him that they went out and he was able to calm down. 

He skipped training and waited for them to arrive, he kept staring out the window hoping it was them. He couldn't let them know though, knowing how kind they were, they would try not to go out so that he wouldn't worry. He could deal with this himself.
