Ira was almost in a, state of losing her mental stability.
She cried a lot holding Pia in her arms.
She hugged her dear sister close. She kept muttering sone gibberishes.
The two men realised that Ira might lose her mind.
They immediately rushed to her side.
They tried to take Pia.
"Nooo, I won't give her to you.You will hurt her.
I won't allow you to hurt her again.I won't allow itttt" Ira screamed at them fearing they will hurt her again.
"No, Ira we are not gonna hurt her. Look here, we are your friends.Look at me, we are friends. Believe us. Pia is not gonna die. We will save her. She just lost some blood.Please allow us to take her for treatment." the silent man tried to assure Ira.
Ira looked at him. His gaze exuded warmth and assurance.She felt like trusting him. His deep blue eyes didn't have any malice or treachery;all she felt was trust and comfort.
She couldn't help herself from nodding as a yes to his words.
"Well good girl, don't be afraid.
Zach, have you checked Pia's condition." He asked the chirpy man.
"It is a bit complicated.She actually doesn't have any blood in her;she lost almost all of the blood in her body. Also Asher has crushed all of her bones.It is actually a miracle that she is still alive.
At present, we have been able to stabilize her condition by giving her the 'MINARVA' Pills.
We shouldn't delay anylonger. It might aggravate her condition."The chirpy man told to him almost in a whisper as he felt that it might not be good if Ira hears it.
Ira at present is not in the right mind.
The silent man nodded and gestured him to take Pia.
The chirpy man immediately took Pia from Ira's hug.
Ira didn't say a word but just sat there like a lifeless doll. She wasn't even crying.
The silent man felt his heart clenching in pain seeing her like that.
The girl who had his heart was sitting in front of him like she lost her life.
He looked at those innocent eyes which always invaded him in his dreams. It only had pain in it.
He felt tears staining his cheeks as he looked at her. He couldn't help but cry for his little bunny.
He wanted to cry out all her pain. He didn't felt embarassed crying but he felt that he should make her realise that she still had someone who will cry for her.
Out of an impulse, he ran towards her to hug his girl.He knew how much Asher has tortured her. He couldn't imagine how she lived after witnessing her parents' death.
He always adored her for her willpower and strength;for her love and care towards Pia.
He had been always with her like a shadow but she didn't notice him. But it didn't hurt him. He just wanted to see her smile. But he knew how she built a strong wall that shut all others from her world that included only Pia
He wanted to enter that world and love her, pamper her and dote on her making her forget all her pains.
He wanted to see her lovely innocent smile.
Actually his magic went out of control when he saw that Asher was gonna harass her. When he saw Asher's dirty hands wandering all over her body, he lost his mind in rage and as a result his spells became too strong that it hurt Ira.
He was lost in his own thoughts embracing his lovely girl who was now weeping like crazy.
Ira was first startled when the silent man hugged her but she didn't hate it. In fact he was like the last straw that would save her from her sorrows. He made her feel safe. She hugged him tight.
He was like a promise that made her believe that everything will be good.
They hugged each other for a few minutes.
Ira felt somewhat relieved crying out all her pain.
She hadn't cried after her parents died.
It was like her tear glands weren't functional.
She felt her heart ease after all her weeping
She couldn't help but feel thankful to the silent man.
It was her first time to have someone supporting her.
She looked up to see him. He was also looking at her with a tender gaze.
"Thankyou" she managed to thank him.
She felt a bit awkward but as soon as she thanked him, she saw a smile blooming in his face.
She blushed a little seeing him holding her.
She immediately breakoff from his hug.
She, was a bit flustered but she regained her composure.
"I am sorry, I didn't know that I was clinging onto you"she apologized to him in a icy tone.
He could feel that she was again pulling on her guards but he didn't mind it as she was willing to be with him comfortably even though it was unknowingly.
" It isn't a big deal."he replied to her trying his best to hide his happiness.
Ira also didn't notice his amused expression.
"Then, can you take me to the place where you took Pia?" Ira asked him.
"Ohh, I forgot about it. We can now start our journey to reach the Empire before night falls."
He replied to her.
"So how do we get there?Ira again inquired.
'Ohh, look how curious my bunny is.'he couldn't help but adore her seeing her curious gaze.
He felt contented seeing his bunny in her normal self. He was afraid that she might not be able to handle it. He feared that he might lose her forever but that didn't happen.
Ira raised her brow seeing him laughing to himself.
'Did he perhaps lost his mind.'she felt sad for him thinking that he was demented.
But our poor 'silent' man was in his own world of happiness that he didn't notice her gaze filled with sympathy falling on him.
