"We swear by the realms that we will never betray you" Night added bowing his head.

A soft sigh escaped my lips as I stared straight into there eyes.

"Alright I will give you a chance and in time I will learn to trust you two" I said with a small nod.

Nyx and Night exchanged excited looks as the both hugged me tightly.

I bit my lip as I struggled not to cry because this was the first time in my entire life being hugged so warmly.

I slowly hugged them back a small smile flickering across my face.

After the three of us broke apart I murmured "You must stay hidden while I'm in camp."

"We will watch over you in our Panther forms" Nyx said nodding her head.

"I must get back now" I said as I got back on Snow.

A few minutes later I arrived back in camp. As I tied up Snow next to my tent I saw a man with dark blue hair and eyes coming towards me.

"Why were you out of camp after dark?" He asked sharply.

"I lost track of time" I said looking straight into his eyes unblinking.

"Did you see anything suspicious out there?" He asked narrowing his eyes.

"No not that I know" I said. "Next time come back before dark" He said as he turned and walked away.

With a soft huff of annoyance I went inside my tent to get a few hours of sleep.

For once I felt safe going to bed. I knew no one would be able to try and kill me while I slept.

Not on Nyx and Nights watch. For some reason the instant I met them I felt a strong connection with them.

I felt like I could completely trust them just in one night........
