Undercover Bond

Chapter 8: Savior

Colette took Andrew as far as she could away to the Castle.

"Where are you taking me?" Andrew said, breathless while they were running.

"Away from that asshole. We're almost there." Colette replied. Andrew wasn't sure what she was talking about.

She found a forest near the village of Asgard and headed there, where they're out of sight. Where no guards could find them. She looked for a safe spot for them to talk freely that no one could hear them.
Colette wanted to tell him, she just didn't know what to say. She barely knows him, but at that moment Colette felt like Andrew was the only one she could trust. He noticed how worried she was and held her hand. But after what happened, she didn't want anyone to touch her so she moved her hand away.

"Why so worried, do you and Loki fight?" Andrew asked. She refused to speak.

"It's ok if you don't want to tell me, you know. Even though we came all the way here." He said, but didn't leave. Out of no where, Colette had no fucks and hugged Andrew tightly, tear droplets on her cheeks.

"Thank you. Thank you so so much." Colette whispered onto his ears.

"Uh, of course anytime." Andrew didn't really know what was happening, but he liked the feeling. He hugged back.

"You can tell me anything. I promise." He looked at her eyes, noticed that she was broken and weak.

"Loki... You were right about him." She murmured, sniffing.

"He will never change. He will always be evil." She continued.

Andrew knew where this was going. He pulled back and listened.

"He... um.." Colette couldn't say the words.

"It's ok." Andrew soothed her down.

"Touched me." She almost choked by that word. Andrew wanted to kill him. He was speechless.

"He drugged me. To m-make me feel weak." Colette stuttered, freezing in the woods. Andrew removed his jacket to cover her. He was filled with so much anger.

"I will protect you from him. I promise you that." Andrew swore to her and his heart. That scumbag will not lay a hand on Colette.

"Thank you, Andrew. I don't know why I'm telling you this. It's just that.... I feel like i trust you. You saved me." Colette said weakly, the drug hitting her body again. She fell on to Andrew's arms.

"I c-can't.. Feel.. Anything.." She murmured.

"I think the drug is working on you again. Don't worry, I won't touch you. It's ok, you're safe." Andrew said, lying her head on a boulder and scooted away.

Colette snuggled to his warm body, cold and helpless. He put his arms around her shoulder. They both never felt this comfort before. Andrew had a spare blanket on his bag and wrapped it around Colette's body to keep her safe and warm on this cold night.

The castle was too far, that they slept in the woods at night until morning.
