Chapter 511 I Need You(Chapter Preview)

"I.. I need your help brother!"  Though she did not clarify what she wanted, her actions were telling Leo that she wanted to run away and wanted his help in getting a chance to get Chris out.

"Have you gone crazy, Eve? What about us! Father would go crazy and he would lock you in the attic for your lifetime if he found out that you tried to run away," she looked away as if she was hiding from reality. She knew that her father was worried about her but she failed to understand his worries.

"He can not bound me. I have not learnt to live in a cage! I would continue to try until I would achieve my freedom." he groaned when he saw the deep resolve in her eyes.

He knew that she was not good at listening no matter how much he would explain to her. But he could not let her go.

"Eve!"

"Are you helping me or not brother?" he winced listening to her cold and harsh voice. As if no matter what happens, he would not be able to stop her.

He wanted to tell her to think twice but knew that she was not going to listen.

"Give me some time. If you run away without any preparation, then you are only going to get caught later.

Let me think about it in detail." her eyes narrowed at his face as if she was having her doubts. The look of suspicion was so evident that Leo frowned.

"Who do you think I am. huh? I will ask father once again and if he does not understand, then I will support you.

But for now return back to your room and stay there or else I will increase the guards around you." she bit her lips as she looked at him with an aggrieved face. Her hold on her dress tightened but she did not move an inch.

Her eyes staring back at him with such intensity that he closed his eyes and pinched the space between his brows.

"It did not matter what you say, Eve. you do not have any choice but to return to your room. If you want my help, you have to listen to me and you can not leave this palace without my help.

The knights would find you and then lock you in your room forever." he reminded her of the harsh reality which she had never forgotten.

She knew that her attempts were futile. She remembered how he had found Evan when she was so cautious and ran away from the market. Not to forget that there were around 60 knights guarding the palace right now.

"I.. I want to see him at least." she said in a low but determined voice while her eyes continued to stare at him without backing away.

"Alright,. Go with the knight, he will take you there.`` The knights standing behind him bowed his heads and took the lead when Eve stared at her brother once more with a pleading gaze but he shook his head coldly and she sighed.

Tears welled in her eyes as she turned to leave, realizing that she had been crying a lot these days. Who would have thought that they would have to pay so much for that kiss.. If she had known that, she would have made sure that they would never be found out.

"You should not worry about him. Father would not be able to keep him there for long and let him go away soon." though she knew that Leo was only trying to console her but his words stung her heart.

If he were gone this time, would she ever be able to see him again? Yet she nodded as she knew that no one would understand her pain and feelings and she was alone in this fight.

Leo continued to see her retreating back until she disappeared when he stared at the other knight who was still scared due to the event in the room and keeping his gaze away.

"Go and keep an eye, make sure that she did not hurt herself or force the other knight to free the prisoner." if it was about Eve, he could never be at ease.

He knew how stubborn she was when it came to things she wanted in her life.

The knights nodded and followed the girl and the previous knights stealthily when he sighed.

He stared at the door of the meeting room but did not want to return there. He was not welcome there anyways.

Taking a deep breath, he walked to his room and opened the door when he saw her flinching.

She was standing there in her corset that was barely hiding her ample breasts and soft and fair thighs. She was looking enticing. When was the last time when he had touched her and made love to her.

Her surprised actions slowly relaxed when he realize it was her and continued to pick her dress up from the bed when he walked closer.

He took hurried steps towards her and before she could zip her gown, he held it tightly, gaining a raised brow from her.

Instead of replying he wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her closer into his arms. Her soft scent made him finally peaceful.

He inhaled again and then rubbed his nose in the crook of her neck.

"You look tired. Do you need some warm food or maybe a massage to make you feel better?" she looked at him softly.,. In the past few days, she was so engrossed in keeping her child and herself safe that she had completely forgotten about his needs.

It must be tiring for him. And Eve.. she was looking heartbroken too. She wanted to ask about the decision but decided to ask later looking at his pale face and puffy eyes. Stroking his hair softly she offered but he shook his head,

"I need you to feel better."
