The woman's face paled immediately. The man frowned. He could see her hands trembling a little. He quickly walked forward.
"Where is The Madame?"
The guards shifted their gaze at him. They were silent. They took back their spears before returning to their guarding duty.
The man clenched his fist tightly before taking a small breath. He turned around to see the woman staring at the gate with wide eyes. Her hands gripped her robe around her tighter. Her feet were rooted in the ground.
The man stepped in front of her and gripped her shoulder tightly before looking directly into her eyes.
Her eyes shook lightly as she weakly moved her head from side to side.
"Do you trust me?"
The man suddenly asked. The woman bit her lips as she gripped the robe around her tighter. She closed her eyes before nodding weakly.
