Lorelei cuddled in, instantly feeling guilty. "Im sorry... I shouldntve snapped at you..."

"It's fine" He said, emotionless

Lorelei hugged him tight. "No it's not... I'm sorry... I'm just upset..."

"And rightfully so, my love" He said, pecking her head and lifting her chin gently with his hand. "They hurt you and broke you and I'm so sorry..." He whispered

Lorelei buried her face into his chest. She didn't want to talk about it...

"You know I'm here for you, right?" He asked softly, stroking her head and pecking her cheek gently. "I'd never make you do anything you didn't want to. You know that, right? I'm not like them?"

Lorelei nodded. "I know..." she whispered.

"I love you so much" He breathed in her ear, holding her close and rubbing her back. Every one of them will die painful and merciless deaths. They will pay and beg for death as I kill them slowly. He thought, vowing it to himself for Lorelei's sake

"I love you too," she whispered, clinging onto him.

"Sleep, my beautiful girl. I'll protect you." He promised, pecking her cheek
