Chương 544: It's okay

This was the very first time she had spoken and looked at him this way. 

But Gav's gaze remained gentle, looking at her with understanding as he stretched his hand out towards her. "Come here, love." He said and Evie looked away angrily, fists tightly held in a curved ball. He had to approach her and gently pull her into his arms again. "I'm sorry…" he whispered, and Evie shut her eyes and clung onto him. Her body shook a little as she inhaled and tried to gather her emotions that had got the better of her. 

Gavriel rubbed her head and back in a small, circular, soothing motion as he started to whisper to her. "I'm not stopping you, Evie. I just feel that you're being too emotional right now. It's like you're rushing to do things to distract yourself from something else. And I'm afraid that you'd be overwhelmed emotionally once you start seeing those memories too."
