It took Penelope less than five minutes before she started to doze away to a dreamless sleep. Her eyes that had turned heavy were now tightly closed shut. With her head that rested on the soft pillow, a soft snore escaped through her lips.
Damien continued to look at her sleeping face. She looked utterly tired when he had met her at the Isle Valley. Her face marking fresh bruise, each one redder and darker with her lip that was cut. To make things worse his step-sister had made her crawl on the dirt-filled wet ground. The rim of her eyes red and it was very rare that Penny ever shed tears. Maybe today was the day where she had been comfortable enough to let the drops of tears fall in front of him.
