For the first time, Roxana finally spoke the truth from her mouth. She didn't care if Damian would laugh at her or if he would see her as a weak human because Roxana could no longer continue to hide behind her emotionless mask.
However, the demon didn't laugh at her.
"Don't be." Damian pulled Roxana's nape, then pressed their foreheads together so that Roxana could feel Damian's slightly cool body temperature. "I'll always be next to you and make sure that bastard doesn't touch you even a little."
"Not even your hand or a strand of your hair." Damian reassured her, "So, don't be afraid."
Roxana was sure Damian could be gentle like that because he wanted Roxana to get her revenge quickly, so he could consume her soul. However, Roxana did not care about that. Whether those words were a lie or sincere, as long as Damian promised to always be by her side, then that was enough.
