The Prospect's Deal

22

After a few moments of just watching me, Ezra finally took several steps toward me, his pace was slow and calm, not urgent or aggressive at all. Ezra walked over towards me with gentle footsteps, he finally stopped walking only when he was nearly right next to me.

When he realized that I had suddenly clung onto his torso, Ezra immediately felt his arms instinctively wrap around me as he quickly returned the embrace. Ezra was now fully embracing me, his arms were wrapped around me tightly and he brought me in towards his body to make me feel as close to him as possible. Ezra's face now wore a gentle smile as he held me close to his body.

Ezra instantly felt the warm and salty tears streaming down my face as I held onto him tightly, he sighed softly as his arms gently squeezed me for a moment. Ezra looked down at me as he felt the warmth of my tears on his chest, he also noticed I was also holding onto his right sleeve tightly.

Ezra continued to wrap his arms around me as he noticed me holding tightly onto his sleeve, he kept my head buried against his chest as he held me close to him. Ezra gently brushed the tears from my face, his eyes bore into mine lovingly as he continued to hold me close to him.

Ezra didn't want to let me go just yet, he felt my body pressing against him tightly, and the heat of my body radiated from mine as he was holding me close. His arms were still tight around me, he didn't want to let his hold on me go as he continued to bring me closer to his body. Ezra's gaze was now locked with mine, the warmth of his arms around me was comforting as they brought me to a feeling of safety.

Ezra kept his gaze locked with mine, the gentle and soft expressions on his face made him more soothing and comforting as he continued to hold me close to him. He felt my body pressed tightly up against his as I held onto him, he could feel all the heat radiating from me as he cradled me in his arms. Ezra's arms were still tight around me, he wasn't loosening his grasp in the slightest bit. Ezra still carried a tender and soft gaze as he looked back at me, it felt comforting just to have his eyes on me.

Ezra's attention was focused solely on me as he heard some of the men looking over out of concern about what had happened. He could tell that what was happening was causing them concern, but he continued to hold me tightly as I cried into his arms. Ezra continued to brush away the tears that were now streaming down my face as he held me close to his body. Ezra didn't let his embrace on me slacken up at all, he knew that I needed to feel comfort at that moment so he kept his hold on me.

Ezra kept gently wiping away the tears that fell down my face, even though more tears were still forming. Ezra wanted to be as comforting and as calming as possible in that moment as he held me close, his arms were still tightly wrapped around me and he still had no plans to let go. Even with the other men looking over out of concern, Ezra didn't seem to let them affect his composure right now. His focus and attention right now were solely locked onto me, he even completely ignored his surroundings as well.

Ezra continued to hold onto me tighter as he had my body pressed against himself, he felt the heat of my body radiating onto his as he was still caressing my curls. Everything around this moment had basically come to a halt as my tears streamed down my face, he only focused on me as he comforted me as best as he could. Ezra brushed away several more tears that fell down my face as he held me close.

"Can we go back to the shack?" I asked quietly as my lip trembled.

Immediately as I gently asked if we two could return to our shack, Ezra gently nodded his head as he slowly started to ease his hold on me. "Of course... that would be best, come on and let's go back."

Ezra kept his arms wrapped around me as he began to walk with me, he had kept a gentle and tender gaze on me as well. Ezra's body language was still very calm and gentle, he continued to keep his movements slow to make the situation more comforting and relaxing for me. He still was wiping away the tears that continued to stream down my face as he walked back to our shack.

As we two made our way back to our shack, Ezra continued to keep his arms wrapped around me and he had never let go of my hand throughout the entire ordeal. Ezra continued to hold me close as we two walked, the calm atmosphere that he gave off was comforting. Ezra's breath was slow and easy as he walked back to the shack while holding onto my hand and he walked at a much slower and less aggressive pace. Ezra's body language felt like he did not want to frighten me.

Ezra had walked in behind me as the two of us made our way inside the shack. Ezra saw that I had taken a seat on the couch, and he closed the door behind us two with the palm of his hand. Ezra kept his gaze on me as he crossed over to the couch, once he was close enough to the couch he sat down right beside me. Ezra gently placed one of his hands onto my lap as he turned his head towards me.
