    Arthur sat on the bed caressing Hazel's small back.

    " Why didn't you both sleep yet..!?" He asked softly.

    " Actually we took a short nap in the evening so..." Harriet trailed off .

    " Hmm.." he hummed in response.

    Harriet was looking at his face , he looked so calm so she thought to start the conversation she wanted to have with him.

     " Umm... Arthur that... night.." just this words left her mouth and Arthur  understood that she was trying to bring the past events back so he hurriedly spoke.

     " I will go... Harriet , tomorrow we are going to catch Sebastian and Dylar." He said and Harriet's heart broke hearing her name from him , he always called her babydoll with so much love.

    " Hmm..." She hummed looking at him with moist eyes which he didn't see as he didn't looked at her face even once.

    Arthur stood up and tried to tug Hazel in bed but she was holding his shirt extremely tight in her sleep.

    " Can... can I.." he hesitated to ask her to sleep in her room which Harriet understood and nodded her head.

    Arthur removed his footwear and climbed the bed.

    He lied on the bed with Hazel sleeping on his chest , Harriet also lied on her side maintaining some good distance from him.

     Arthur wanted to pull her close and clutch her to his chest tight but he couldn't which made him sigh... Hearing him sigh Harriet turned her back to him and tears rolled down her eyes.

    Slowly Harriet drifted to sleep...

    After Arthur was sure she slept he covered her with blanket and pressed a kiss on the side of her head , he covered himself and Hazel and slept.

     The next day there was chaos all around the mansion , Arthur was fuming in anger and barking at each of his mens.

    Last night Dylar and Sebastian bombed his one of the base and many of his mens died... It wasn't like he would get short of mens but they meant something to him ,they were his people and their life mattered to him.

    Harriet came downstairs with Hazel in her arms and went to dining room to find Daniel sitting on the chair and Freya setting the table for breakfast with worried expression on her face.

    " Freya.." she called out and sat on her chair after stroking Daniel's head.

   " Harriet you are here , I will set your plate." Freya said and started arranging plate for Harriet.

   " No wait Freya , let everyone come... And why do you look so worried..!?" Harriet asked.

   " I don't thin-" just as Freya was about to speak they heard Arthur roaring in the living room.

    Harriet stood up from the chair and carried Hazel in her arms while Freya tried to stop her but still Harriet went to the living room.

    Arthur was badly thrashing few people and roaring over the phone just then he saw Harriet's scared face and ended the call with a heavy breathe.

     He walked to her and raised his hands to stroke her cheeks but didn't do it instead he patted Hazel's head.

     Hazel was not a bit scared from all the roaring and seeing so many black dressed armed people around.... She was going to be brave like her father.

     " Wh..what happened..!?" Harriet asked in her low scared tone , she sensed something was wrong.

    " Jarvis is little injured , don't worry he will be fine. I am going out and I will end this Sebastian problem today itself hmm... Don't be scared ." He said and after contemplating her expression for a bit he leaned in and kissed Hazel's head , he so badly wanted to kiss Harriet and assure her even Harriet wanted his reassuring forehead kiss but both held back.

      Arthur turned around and left...

     Harriet sat in the living room and fed Hazel when Freya walked in with Daniel...
