Bewitched His Soul - Chapter 147
Getting lost in the forest was making Evelyn look at Daniel from a different perspective.
She really hoped she can find the way back or someone would come to rescue them otherwise she was not sure what she may end up doing with Daniel.
Daniel had got a different kind of fruits and when he was coming back he heard Evelyn screamed, thinking she may be in danger he ran towards her.
“What happened, are you okay,”Daniel asked.
He checked around the surroundings to see if any animal has arrived.
“My hands , my legs..,” Evelyn said in a pained tone.
“Are you hurt , how did this happen ,”Daniel kept the fruits aside and lifted her hand when he did not find anything he saw her leg and the result was same.
“Where is the wound, “Daniel asked.
“Who said anything about the wound, “Evelyn asked
“Then why are you screaming and pointing towards your hands and legs ,”Daniel asked.
“Can’t you see ,”Evelyn extended her hand towards him.
Daniel seriously looked at her hands for a minute yet did not find any difference.
“I have got tanned , how can you not notice ,”Evelyn complained.
“Tanned..,” Daniel was confused.
“Yes ,my dermatologist recommended me to wear sunscreen even while staying at home but now look at my skin its totally tanned. Oh my god what if no agency books me once I go back because I am no more good looking .You know over exposure to sun is not good, it may cause severe disease like skin cancer ….will I die then, “Evelyn gasped.
“Put a stop to your imagination, “Daniel rolled his eyes.
What was she thinking seriously, if one does not wear sunscreen then they will die.
“You don’t understand, sunscreen is a stable in my life ,”Evelyn stated.
“We are struck in this forest , anyone in your place will be thinking about safety not about beauty ,”Daniel scowled.
“It’s no use talking to you ,”Evelyn ran her fingers on her arm sadly .Her skin was so dry and rough ,if she stayed any longer in this forest then it will be really difficult to care take of her appearance.
Daniel sighed seeing how sad Evelyn was .She did not look so depressed even when she got to know they are lost in the forest .Now she looked as if the world has collapsed ,how can she be so different from others. Seriously who ever marries this Anderson princess in future will never have a moment of peace in his life .Daniel pitied that guy thinking how he will suffer in Evelyn’s hands .
“When can we go home,” Evelyn sulked.
“Very soon. My men may have known about my disappearance and they could have taken some action,”Daniel stated.
“I don’t like it here ,”Evelyn cribbed.
Daniel pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration , not only was be worried about getting out of this forest but should also look after the delicate Evelyn.
“Here , take this ,”Daniel removed his coat and passed on to her.
“Why are you giving me ,”Evelyn asked.
“Aren’t you worried about getting tanned ,”Daniel replied .
“Oh yeah ,thank you ,”Evelyn took the jacket .
It was night and after lighting the twigs in the middle Daniel went to sleep but Evelyn stayed awake as even a tiny bit of noise made her think of all scary possibilities.
Evelyn saw Daniel was sleeping soundly , she thought she will lay down next to him just like yesterday .She got up and without making any sound walked towards him.
She lay next to him and was making herself comfortable when suddenly Daniel opened his eyes.
“Ahh,”Evelyn screamed covering her mouth with the back of her palm.
“Why are you here ,”Daniel asked.
“I …I am scared ,”Evelyn stammered.
“Hmm..,”Daniel looked at the sky.
“Can I sleep here ,”Evelyn asked and Daniel nodded his head .Even though he felt uncomfortable having a female next to him , he endured it and tried to pretend he was alone.
Evelyn kept on tossing and turning as she felt the floor was hard and on top of that due to wind the leaves were falling on her.
“Are you asleep, “Evelyn asked.
“No..,”Daniel replied with eyes closed.
“Then lets chat ,”Evelyn suggested but there was no response from Daniel’s side .
Evelyn moved towards Daniel and pulled the corner of his shirt lightly.
“Can we talk about something , please ,”Evelyn asked in a soft tone.
Daniel opened his eyes and replied, “Tell me what you want to talk .”
Evelyn smiled and stated ,”Any random topic , just distract me from this environment.”
“Do you know X country is planning an attack on Y country next mouth ,few soldiers have already entered illegally ,”Daniel stated.
“Daniel ,how can you be so insensitive .Do you think I am interested in some war and destruction, when I said any random topic I meant something fun and lighthearted ,”Evelyn rolled her eyes.
“Oh , then I am sorry .I don’t have anything to talk, “Daniel said bluntly.
“What do you talk with your friends ,”Evelyn asked.
“Work, “Daniel replied.
“All the time ,”Evelyn’s eyes were wide opened.
“Yes ,”Daniel replied .Well what else could he find more interesting than work ,when all the time he was thinking how to make the Russo empire stronger and protect it from the enemies .
“What do you talk with your parents ,”Evelyn asked.
“Nothing much, they know I am not good at communicating, “Daniel stated.
Daniel’s father was just like him who was a man of few words so they had short and crisp conversations whereas his mother was an entirely different story who had trouble being quite so she kept on asking Daniel questions , he either answered in one word or was silent .His mother was not dishearten as she kept on talking in spite of his cold response and on dining table the father son listened while his mother did all the talking.
“What are your hobbies ,”Evelyn asked.
As soon as Daniel opened his mouth to speak she guessed what he could say so she interrupted ,”Except fighting and killing.”
“I guess reading,”Daniel stated.
“Reading, its little hard to believe, “Evelyn said.
She thought he may be into sports because reading did not suit him.
“I have a high IQ so I finished reading the syllabus quickly ..When I had nothing to do I randomly picked some book in the library and sat in a corner reading it , it’s also a way to avoid my classmates who kept on pestering to play with them,”Daniel stated.
