"No, I won't." Cayenne whispered softly with her eyes closed, holding back her tears that were threatening to fall. "I won't be willful anymore. I will listen to whatever you say and I won't take any risk involving my life."
Stefan's sighs escaped his lips as he listened to her words. He rubbed her back to calm her down and kissed her palm. "I was really worried and scared. For a moment, I blanked out and was not sure what to do. Ayen, I thought I'd go crazy after you disappeared."
"I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."
"Shh. It's not your fault." Stefan kissed her temple again and again. "It wasn't your fault that you were abducted. You should blame me for not protecting you properly."
"No, you did your best to protect me. It was me who was so stubborn and willful. I caused all this." Cayenne was in the brink of crying already so Stefan diverted the subject to calm her nerves.
