"That…" The shadow guard seemed hesitated to talk.

Looking at the way the shadow guard behave Xiao Tianyao grew impatient, he snapped. "Speak!"

"When this subordinate came inside the room. There was no one there except young miss Senja. We have been searching all over the room and surroundings however we can't find anything" After he finish talked, he knew that his report didn't weight any credit that cause his master unsatisfied. Almost immediately he fell on his knee.

"This subordinate has been derelict in his duties, may Your Highness mete punishment!" The shadow guard who knelt on the ground, admitted his inability to carry out his duties with a trace of fear in his voice.

"Do as you see fit" He throw those word coldly before he walked inside the room, leaving the sorry shadow guard who have to punished himself, at least he would only received beaten and not lost his life, with that in mind he kowtow thankfully to Xiao Tianyao receding figure.

***

Inside the room.

Senja covered her whole body with quilt on the bed, her long curly purple hair draped around her face as she sat on the edge of the bad while Elder Dam sat on the chair near her.

Looking her eyes glittered with tears make Xiao Tianyao halted his step. He was standing not far nor near them, it make him could hear their conversation without revealed himself or noticed by both.

Xiao Tianyao detested the most when women act pitiful like that. He was either impatient or didn't know how to reacted with their tears, and now when he saw Senja's eyes full of tears the feeling of resentment rose in his heart.

Luna never acted like that…

He over hear their conversation silently while leaning on the wall.

At the room Elder Dam was coaxing Senja to stop crying. He either patted her head or stroked her hands while occasionally whipped away her tears.

"It's fine now my child, it's fine now…" He said softly however tears on Senja eyes still flowing like it would never stop. "Tell grandfather, what happened"

Her shoulder shivered and then she spoke between her sobbed. "Sobsob… someone had barged in while I was sleeping… I can't see his face clearly because he was covering his face with black mask. And then… sobsob… and then the shadow guards were coming and he gone"

"Did you see which direction he gone?"

Senja shook her head. "I don't know grandfather, I am too scared, so I close my eyes" She whined pitifully and then tighten the quilt that cover all over her body.

"Who is that man grandfather? Is he tried to kidnap me again?"

"Its fine now my child, grandfather will take care of this. No one will hurt you" Elder Dam said this yet he felt ashamed because as much as he promised, every time also he failed her. It made him little bit down.

Naturally Senja could feel Elder Dam depression however she wasn't in position to comfort him. So she was just simply stop crying and just sobbing occasionally as a form to ease his burden.

"For the time being you will live here, so you can stay close to me while grandfather will finish all things here and then we can go back home as soon as possible"

Senja nodded obediently.

"Are you fine now child? Grandfather will take care of another thing for now. Is it fine if I leave for a while?"

The sun has risen in the east and was illuminating the room through cracks of the window. It gave off tranquil vibe that made Senja felt tired and sleepy. She had been running around the whole night, jumping, fighting and watched unexpected event, she was tired for both mentally and psychologically.
