Chapter 550 - Memories (Part 1)

As the stone door closed behind him, Aiden could finally heave a sigh of relief. After everything that happened today and the day before, Aiden was in desperate need of some real rest.

Still, he couldn't help but look towards the direction of where the life signs of the girls were supposed to be. Aiden felt regret, sadness, and grief for the first time. Regret, because of his hasty actions. Because of him, a child, a small angel of a girl has lost the one person she loved the most. Sadness as well as grief for taking away a father, a 'papa' from someone innocent of all of this.

Aiden sighed, unable to come up with anything to lift his mood. 

'I can only roll with it now. I…" Making up his mind, Aiden nodded one last time towards the direction of the girl, before turning away and walking up to the far-right corner of the room where a stack of leaves, -probably gathered from around the forest above them-, was gathered and placed to form a cozy-looking nest.
