Avenger's coming back

Chapter 81 I Will Be With You At Any Time

Since the appearance of Andrew, no matter what happened to her, he would always come to her side. Last time, when she was in danger, he saved her in time, and this time again.

If a person always appeared when you were in danger, it would be difficult for you not to fall in love with someone. Perhaps Noble and Ellison were right. In order to protect his woman, he must first become strong and independent.

Looking at the sleeping Lily, who was holding his hand, Eric was a little angry. He wanted to draw his hand back, but he was afraid to wake her up.

All of a sudden, Lily's breath became short. She frowned and her face turned red. "Um… Let, let me go... "

"Girl." Seeing this, a tinge of panic flashed across Eric's face. He reached out his hand and patted her face, but he didn't dare to slap too hard for fear of hurting her. "Wake up, my girl."

"Let, let go of me, help..." Maybe she was still tangling with the dream, Lily seemed to struggle. Her voice was so weak in the dream that even her forehead was sweating.

"Girl, wake up." Eric was so anxious that he kept slapping her in the face. "Girl, Lily..."

"Lily! Lily! Wake up!" He called her name, patted her face, and finally shook her shoulder a few times before he rescued her from the nightmare.

Lily opened her eyes mistily. Everything in front of her was unclear. She was still breathing hard and her face was reddish.

"You finally wake up." Seeing that she had woken up, Eric heaved a sigh of relief.

Lily blinked her eyes and adjusted her breath. It took her a while to realize where she was when she saw clearly everything in front of her.

Somehow she wanted to cry.

Because she saw the concern on Eric's face and the worry in his black eyes.

She felt a lump in her throat and her eyes turned red in an instant. Lily acted in a spoiled way towards a man for the first time since rebirth. She stretched out her hands to Eric.

Eric was stunned. He didn't understand what she meant by that.

Seeing him stand still, Lily said with a nasal voice, "Hug."

He didn't stretch out his hand. Instead, he frowned and said in a low voice, "Look at me carefully. Who am I?"

"Eric, hold me in your arms..." Lily could not help but burst into tears, which seeped down the corners of her eyes into the pillow towel and disappeared.

The word "girl" was ringing in her ears when she was having the nightmare just now. It was not like how her grandpa called her, but with a complex emotion in it. She knew that was Eric.

"Girl..." Eric still wanted to say something, but before he said, Lily suddenly held him in her arms.

"Eric," She put her hands around his neck tightly and buried her head in his neck. "I know you are Eric, and I can't live without you."

She didn't say it on the whim, but since rebirth, no matter what happened, he will always appeared next to her. When she was weak, he saw it, and when she was strong, he saw it. Others said she was bad, but he silently helped her behind her.

Her words were like a pebble thrown into a lake, causing waves in Eric's heart, which made him a little breathless. His hands unconsciously covered her waist.

"I can't hold it anymore." Lily said in a muffled voice. "I know I can't live a peaceful life all my life. But these things happened in succession. I really can't stand it..."

She sobbed, "I went to see a client today to increase my horizons, but… I didn't expect that something like this would happen to me. Why are there so many men out there who try to rape me?"

Hearing her cry and complaint, Eric felt distressed. His hand around her waist tightened unconsciously. "It's all right. I'm here." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"I… I don't want to live such a life. I really don't."

"I know."

Eric sighed. He gently patted the back of the woman in his arms, but his eyes were looking outside the French window, with a long distance.

"I'm so tired..." Lily stopped sobbing. With exhaustion in her tone, she gradually calmed down.

Her hands around his neck had been loosened, and her body had become soft, but she did not get rid of his arms. She leaned weakly against the chest of Eric, with her hands holding his waist.

Withdrawing his sight, Eric looked at her and reached out his hand to touch it gently. "Have a good sleep if you feel tired."

Lily shook her head, "I'm afraid of nightmares."

"This will never happen again." Although his tone was a little soft, his eyes were firm.

After hearing that, Lily didn't say anything. There was a lot of things that she wanted to do and it was hard to say whether she would encounter such a thing again. However, at this moment, her heart was very calm, because she had Eric by her side.

"Eric," She called him in a soft voice.

"What?" Eric stopped and looked down at her.

"Stay with me from now on, okay?"

"Okay."

When she asked, he answered it quickly without thinking.

"Thank you."

"You don't need to say that. I'll be with you whenever you want."

Hearing his words, Lily tightened her arms around his waist, making them closer to each other. She knew it was selfish to make such a request to him, but this was what she wanted to say the most in her heart. She wanted to keep him at her side, and even more want to own him.

The room was so quiet that only their breathing could be heard.

"Girl." Said Eric all of a sudden.

"What?" Lily raised her head from his arms and looked at him. His eyes met hers.

"You called Andrew when you were dreaming." He said.

"No. How could I call his name?" Lily refuted subconsciously.

"You said brother Andrew."

"No, I didn't."

"You did."

"Really?" Lily doubted.

"Really." Eric looked at her with conviction. Well, he admitted that in fact, he cared a lot about that brother Andrew she had just called!

Seeing that Eric was so determined, Lily lowered her head and rubbed her fingers. "Maybe… I did."

"Look at me." Eric raised her chin and forced her to look at him, "Don't call him in your dreams!"

Looking at him, Lily flushed and retorted in a low voice, "But I can't decide who I call in my sleep."

"I don't care. You just can't call him that way!" He was somewhat dissatisfied with her words. "If you want to say, you can only call me."

"Eric," Her voice was soft and there was a smile on her face. "Are you jealous?"

"Yes." He didn't shun from the topic. "I'm unhappy seeing you with him."

"No need." Lily gently rubbed his hand, "Kerr wants to be with my mother. As his son, brother Andrew will be my brother. You don't have to be jealous."

Eric knew that Kerr wanted to pursue her mother. Last time when they went to the manor, he saw it. But the way Andrew looked at Lily was not like how he looked at his sister.

"But I just feel uncomfortable."

"Okay." Lily held his hand and put it on her chest. "You are the most special one in my heart. Don't think too much."

This was unintentionally confessing to him. After speaking, she blushed. She was not an active person, but she had lived for two lives. The facts told her that being passive was a very bad thing. Sometimes being active was not a bad thing.

What's more, she was exactly what she wanted. In her eyes, he was at least a thousand times better than that Frank.

Hearing that, Eric smiled and said something flirtatious, "Then give me a kiss."

"Don't go overboard." Lily's face turned red with shyness. She shook off his hand, lied down on her side and turned her back to him.

She had taken the initiative to kiss him in the car today. She had taken the initiative to express her love to him just now. How could he ask her to kiss him now!

Eric also lay down beside her, with his hands around her waist. He pulled her into his arms, with her back clinging to his chest.

"Stop it. I want to sleep." Lily shyly bumped his arm.

"Go to sleep. I'll sleep with you." He kissed her earlobe and said, "That's it. I want to sleep with you."

At this moment, Lily somehow had the illusion that they were an old married couple.

They slept till the evening. When they woke up, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Eric answered sleepily.

The door opened and she saw Ellison leaning against the door frame, looking at them with a faint smile. "Are you still sleeping? Dinner is ready. Are you going to eat or not?"

"Ah." Lily, who was half asleep, was startled when she heard a stranger's voice. Thinking that she was only wearing Eric's shirt, she quickly pulled the quilt up.

Eric look at Lily and smiled. Then he sat up and looked at Ellison. "Brother, you seem leisurely."

"Yes, I have a lot more free time than Noble," Ellison smiled, but his eyes were still fixed on Lily who was hiding in the quilt. "Eric, your little girlfriend is quite shy."

"You go downstairs first. We'll come downstairs soon," Eric said with dissatisfaction.

Ellison didn't say anything. He took a look at Eric and walked away with his hands in his trouser pockets, smiling.

"He is gone. Get up. They must have waited for a long time." Eric said to Lily.

"Yes." Hearing his words, Lily got out of the quilt, blushed and looked at him. "My... My clothes..."

Her words reminded Eric that her clothes had been dried by Amaya in the afternoon. After that, he took a quick look at Lily, cursing that he shouldn't let her show up in front of them. She was so beautiful, but others can't see.

"Hold on. I'll get your clothes." Then he stood up and walked out.
