My Heart only Beats for You

Yesseca was quiet for a moment.

Did he mean that she could address him as Tremaine from now on?

Montez paced around the door anxiously.

"Why hasn't he come out yet? What's taking him so long?"

He was very nervous.

Was his father being careful with Yesseca as he applied the medicine on her?

Was Yesseca in so much pain that she wanted to cry?

His father hated crying. If Yesseca cried, his father would get very angry!

Yesseca would be terrified of him!

He had to protect Yesseca!

No matter how scarily his father would glare at him, he wouldn't run away!

Yesseca was his woman. If he didn't protect her, who would?

He rushed into the room, determined to meet his doom.

"Bang!"

He rushed right into someone's solid body.

Montez was dizzy from the impact and nearly fell to the ground. Luckily someone held him up in time.

Montez looked up and spotted a pair of coldlooking eyes.

They were Tremaine's eyes.

"Daddy." Montez looked pitiful.

"That was very hasty. Are you rushing to your death?" Tremaine asked coldly.

Montex stood there quietly.

"Montez." Yesseca called out to him.

Montez turned around right away and looked at Yesseca. He sensed the urgency in her voice. "Yesseca, you're alright, aren't you? You have no idea how worried I was about you. I've paced over two hundred rounds outside, worrying about you the entire time."

Yesseca's arm still hurt, but after hearing how worried Montez was, the pain disappeared. She laughed and said, "It's alright, I've applied some ointment on the wound, and your daddy said that there won't be any scars."

Montez's eyes lit up. "That's great."

Then Montez's stomach made a rumbling noise.
