Cecilia nodded and tried her best to relax, but she was still a little shook up from the attack. She didn't even notice him approach until she felt his warm, large hand cover her own. It caused her to jump slightly, but she did not pull away as she fixed her gaze on him. Her cheeks heated up in a pretty blush as she gazed at him. "T-thank you, Sten. I was beginning to lose my composure. I know you will keep me safe. Do... do you mind remaining in the carriage with me until we reach town?"<br/><br/>She hated traveling alone in the carriage with no one to talk to and nothing to do. It was rather boring. He was interesting and full of stories. He intrigued her, even though she probably shouldn't be as interested in him as she was. He was a knight, of the lower class than her, but she couldn't help but want to know more about him. Plus, he was quite handsome too and it made her heartbeat quicken.
