The crow

Avery let out the breath she had been holding when she saw Sebastian suddenly appear in front of him and he pulled her into a warm embrace.

 

"It's just a dream, sleep," Sebastian said in a low voice and Avery's eyes dissolved, letting the sleep take over.

 

"One of the maids was injured," Connor said behind Sebastian but Sebastian didn't say a word. Instead, he carried Avery towards Connor and told him to carry her upstairs.

 

Connor got the message and quickly carried Avery into her room.

 

Sebastian left the room and saw the men in black cloaks standing outside the mansion.

 

They try to attack him but he dodges their attacks effortlessly. 

 

"I will take it from here, Leo." A voice suddenly reverberated behind the men. The familiar voice cut through the silence of the night.

 

The men in cloaks turned their heads toward the direction of the familiar voice.
