Chapter 101: Scared of Darkness
Ch101
Cedric checked the cottage, backyard, and everything for one last time before opening the door. He saw his sleeping beauty was still sleeping. She was tired a lot. She did so many things today. Cedric noticed that her cheek was slightly better. Her pure white skin was looking red because of that slap.
Cedric can imagine the force Amelia exerted in the slap. He wanted to kill Amelia, but in respect of Valene, he stopped himself from doing it.
He looked at her sleeping face. She looked so innocent while she slept. But she was such a fiery cat. Smiling he brushed the hair strands from her cheek and tucked them behind her ear.
Eleanor felt a small feather-like touch on her face. She fluttered and opened her eyes, yawning like a lazy cat to the point small tears formed at the corner of her eyes resembling pearls. Her eyes slit into thin lines as she tried to focus on her surroundings. Wait... this was not her room and not even her bed.
Did she get kidnapped?
Does she need to call the police?
Oh my god!
What does she need to do!?
Turning her head, she looked at the Greek god who sat beside her. He looked so handsome. Her messy heart calmed down when she saw him beside her. Feeling relieved, she sat up and snuggled into his embrace.

Cedric smiled when he saw her acting like a cat. She was indeed a lazy cat, but a cute cat. But suddenly her eyes filled with panic as she stared around. A frown rested between her brows, showing she was not okay with something. When she turned her gaze to him, he noticed she calmed down and relaxed gradually.
