Bewitched His Soul - Chapter 140

“Daniel ,have you sworn off to never say anything nice ,”Evelyn gritted her teeth.

Daniel shocked her by lifting her foot and placing it on his thigh.

“What are you doing ,”Evelyn stammered.

“Need to treat your wound ,”Daniel replied as his  full concentration was on her foot .

“You even know how to treat it ,”Evelyn asked curiously.

“Don’t tell me you don’t know something so simple ,”Daniel raised his brow.

“Dad will call a team of doctors even if I get a fever ,”Evelyn shrugged.

Being an Anderson heiress had a  lot of perks and one of them is having someone ready to cater to her every whim.

“I am going to pull the rock pieces out ,”Daniel said.

If he did not remove the tiny pieces of rock then it will get infected and they were not sure when they will find their way back home to get it treated by a doctor.

Evelyn gulped and clenched her fists , she was very scarred just by thinking how much it may pain.

When he tried to pull it out , she held his shoulders and started to scream , “No ,no stop .I can’t handle the pain.”

Daniel realized he used his  full force and treated her harshly as if she was one of his men. Here he was dealing with the Anderson princess who was pampered and protected from every evil in the world.

“This time I will do it slowly ,you will feel less pain,”Daniel said .His face showed genuine concern and Evelyn felt as if she could trust him.

“Promise ,”Evelyn asked like a kid.

Daniel just nodded his head and he removed the rocks patiently while Evelyn held his shirt tightly and had her eyes closed.

“It’s over ,”Daniel said.

Evelyn opened her eyes and save that there were no traces of any rock pieces.

Daniel’s hand moved towards her knee and Evelyn eyes widened and warned him ,”Hey just because you helped me does not mean you can take advantage of me.”

He held the edge of her dress and tore a piece of it.

“You are crossing your limit , wait till I get out of here my father will not let you go ,”Evelyn threatened him.

Not paying any attention to her words he checked whether there was any dust around the wound .After making sure everything is alright he started to tie the clothe on her foot so that the bleeding could stop.

“Oh , you were just …,”Evelyn trailed off embarrassingly.

“Well what else did you except,”Daniel raised his brow.

“Cannot you tell me before,”Evelyn stated.

“I hate talking, “Daniel replied.

Well that was true as he was so silent all the time .When he was a kid his mother even suspected he may have autism but thankfully he was perfectly fine .It’s just Daniel was just like his father who preferred actions rather than talking.

“What else do you like ,”Evelyn questioned.

“Killing ,”Daniel replied without hesitation .

Evelyn sighed and noticed where he was wrapping her wound there was a  slight tenderness on his face as if he was worried she may get hurt her .

Evelyn was surprised that even Daniel was capable of feeling empathic to others.

She was secretly admiring him when he told her to wear her heels.

“Quickly wear your heels ,”Daniel repeated when Evelyn did not respond for the first time.

“Ya , I will do it ,”Evelyn came out of her trace and tried to wear the heels but failed .

“I can’t ,”Evelyn frowned.

“Let me do it ,”Daniel took the heels from her hand before she rejected him.

“Place your feet now ,”Daniel instructed.

“No , what if its starts bleeding again ,”Evelyn refused.

“Nothing will happen, I have tied the cloth tightly,”Daniel stated.

“Okay …,”Evelyn hesitatingly put her foot when she was about to back off in the middle he quickly pushed her foot.

Daniel got up and dusted his hands .Evelyn felt like it’s a Cinderella moment ,even though Daniel did everything mechanically as if it’s a task but somehow she felt different.

A lot of men have tried to woo her but they just gave her expensive stuff and said sweet words .No one had ever done something like this and even if she does not want to admit a small part of her was touched by his action.

“Lets go,”Daniel said.

Evelyn extended her hand and he clutched her hand making it easier for her to stand up.

“Walk slowly ,”Evelyn requested.

“I know ,”Daniel assured her .

True to his word he matched her footsteps and Evelyn had no trouble walking.

After some time she noticed they just kept on walking in this lonely forest and it looked like they were circling in the place again and again.

“What are we trying to do ,”Evelyn asked.

“The tribal people or woodcutters would have come here .So checking for their footsteps ,”Daniel replied.

“Oh ,but I feel we walked in the same path this morning .This tree looks quite familiar ,”Evelyn said.

Daniel looked at the tree and he also felt he had come across it before.

“Hmm, let’s leave  a mark so there is no confusion .Take a stone and put a cross mark on the tree ,”Daniel instructed.

Evelyn took a stone and tried to mark but failed as she was doing it so delicately.

“Put little more effort ,”Daniel stated.

“Why don’t you come here and do it ,”Evelyn grumbled.

Daniel cursed thinking how she could not even do one thing properly and walked towards her .He snatched the rock from her hand and put a X mark within a second.

As they walked for another ten minutes Evelyn’s started to feel hungry .The last meal she had was yesterday night and now it was already afternoon.

“Daniel..,” Evelyn dragged his name.

“Now what ,”Daniel asked feeling whatever is going to come out of her mouth will not be in his favor.

“I want food .I am so hungry ,”Evelyn said in a pitiful state.

He could have survived for another few hours but because of her they needed to slow down their journey.

“Let me see if I can find something to eat ,”Daniel stated.
