All morning, Rayven could not stop pondering what she said to his face last night.
"Why would I attempt to cover up for someone who is powerful enough to end my life? I am not that strong in comparison to him, Rayven."
Why did it feel so much like she was trying to hint him and at the same time trying to cover up for the person as well?
Strong enough?
Him?
He paused at whatever he was doing to think deeply into this.
What were you trying to tell me, Moonlight?
He just couldn't place his finger on it. He took his time to recall everything that occurred last night. From the time she came running to him with tears all over her face…sobbing and until he slept in her room to keep her safe and ensure her attacker wouldn't dare frighten her anymore.
