But how does anybody expect him to keep a lid on his emotions when this girl messes it up every single time they see each other? It would be better if the girl hated him. However, no matter how cold and indifferent she would act towards him at times. Rhys knew full well that the woman named Lyn didn't hate him. He wonders when he started to see her as a woman, then a mere sixteen-year-old clueless girl who knew nothing about the world? Since when did these feelings start?
His thoughts broke off when he discovered that the girl had closed her eyes shut, and he hears the sound of her soft breathing. 'Fast asleep, she must have been tired,' Rhys thought. He pulled the covers more towards her, so she was mainly wrapped up. But even then, Rhys noticed the girl was shivering, so he dragged her into his arms and held her tightly.
"Sweet dreams, Lyn."
