Meeting You Was Fate

His cold eyes stared at nothing as if thinking of something. He pressed Mandy's shoulder gently and woke her up.

"It is not me. I beg you. Don't come over. Don't hurt me." Mandy's body shivered as tears ran on her delicate face.

"It's okay, Mandy. It's just a nightmare," Nathan whispered calmly. His warm touch invisibly ignited heat all over her body, awakening her senses as if leading her out of the nightmare.

Mandy grabbed Nathan's hand and sat up from the bed, sobbing. Her hair was tousled, and her eyes were puffy as if she just woke up from a great dream.

As she opened her eyes, the nightmare was still vivid. She was so afraid that she threw herself into Nathan's arms without hesitation, seeking refuge and comfort. Nathan was startled but welcomed her with warmth.

She found uncertain security in his arms. He gave her comfortable warmth as he wrapped her in his strong arms, but there was a glint of sadness, and the comfort slowly faded to uneasiness, reminding her that she did not belong there, and the uncertainty of his security troubled her.

When he saw the frightened look on her face, a touch of regret flashed through his deep sympathizing eyes. He was afraid that she was frightened by what he said before they slept. It was just a joke of course. Mandy was really gullible, and if there were really something malicious hidden in his house, he would certainly refuse to accept it in the first place.

"Did you have a nightmare?" Nathan asked expressionlessly after giving Mandy some time to gather her thoughts and come back to her senses.

Mandy nodded without a word. Her crystal eyes mixed with a touch of endurance and uneasiness.

"Don't worry. There is nothing to be afraid of. Don't think too much. You're safe here. Go back to sleep." When he shot Mandy a cold look, there was an unspoken feeling of alienation in his calm tone.

"Really?" Mandy asked with unconvinced tone. She was apparently doubtful.
