42 Ch. 42 I Will Protect You (1/2)

Niken could hardly believe hearing all that. Now she understood the feelings of Xiao Xiao, who wanted to return to the country but was also afraid at the same time. She was scared of what would await her there as soon as she set foot on the island.

She also could understand the way the girl talked to her at ease. It seemed the royal family made a strong bond between the people. So whenever they met a fellow time-controller, they would consider them as a family.

What a kind ruler. She wished both of them could reunite with their children.

But there was one question that is bothering her.

”Xiao Xiao, do you know what happened to the prince and princess? Are they safe and still hiding? Or have they been captured? ” Niken asked doubtfully and carefully.

”I'm not sure whether they are still alive or not, but one thing is sure. The young princess has not yet get caught. From that moment on, many kidnappings of girls the same age as Princess Xiao Yue, and if they had an older brother, that terrible bad guy killed him that instance.

Fortunately, I'm twenty years old, and my sibling is a woman. For now, I'm safe. But if the bad guy knows that my sister and I are the time-controller, we are no longer safe. I heard he is also looking for other time-controllers. Maybe to find Princess Xiao Yue's whereabouts.”

Then Xiao Xiao remembered something and immediately asked Niken in a worried tone.

”Please tell me your age is not nineteen at the moment.”

”No, I'm seventeen years old. So I'm safe.”

Xiao Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. ”That's good. I hope they never find us.”

”You are right. Even if you do, I will protect you. ”

”That's not necessary at all. If you protect me, who will protect you?”
