Eleanor’s Dilemma (V)

Holding Eleanor's hand tightly, Zen brought her to a nearby alley before pinning her down in the wall.

Afterward, Zen stared at Eleanor with a solemn expression. 

"Why did you try to deceive me?" Zen asked Eleanor with a soft tone.

Eleanor didn't mind being pinned down as she placed her arm around his neck and looked at him with a crystal clear eye.

"I didn't mean to deceive you but now that I'm homeless, I have nowhere else to go," Eleanor said pitifully, almost causing Zen to forget about the incident.

'Damn, is it just me, or is this Eleanor always emitting a profound aura despite not showing any strength,' Zen cursed inwardly when he always felt his heart going soft against her.

It was like his mind was telling him that he could never get angry or mad over Eleanor despite only occasionally meeting her and doing some teasing or flirting.
