*Vlad shook his head.*
"It was long ago. There is no reason to revisit such things. I would rather move forward, seeking happiness in this new land."

*Lady Éowyn squeezed his hand in sympathy.*
"Sometimes old wounds are the most painful."
*She said quietly, her eyes distant.*

*Vlad tried to shake it off.*
"It is of no matter. The lessons were learned, so it is acceptable."

*Lady Éowyn looked warmly at him.*
"I am sorry. I wish there was something I could do to make you feel better. I hope you will be able to get a better life here."

"Things are fine here. It seems a lovely city."
*He smiled gently, trying to redirect the conversation.*
"Is your room acceptable?"

*Lady Éowyn smiled warmly.*
"Oh, you have given me a luxury suite. I have never seen such elegance in a hotel room before! And it is real bright and clean and beautiful. The bed is soft so it feels like I am floating when I sleep. How can I ever repay you?"

"I have already told you, it is a gift. There is no payment needed. I am happy that you enjoy it."
*He smiled, eyes genuine.*

*Lady Éowyn smiled back. She suddenly discovered she had kept her hand in his a little too long. She blushed deeply and retreated her hand gently.*
"Forgive me my lord. I am forgetting my manners. I can assure you I do not always behave like this..."

*Lady Éowyn blushed even deeper and looked away, not certain of how to reply. She didn't understand why her heart was hammering so much. And she was trembling. She had never trembled in front of a man before.*
What is wrong with me? Why don't I reply him back? And why am I trembling? I am not afraid of him.

*He noticed the way she quivered and arched his brow.*
"Are you cold, my lady?"

*Lady Éowyn laughed and looked away, afraid to meet his eyes.*
"No, my lord. I am not cold."
*There was a sadness in her voice, a reflection of the loneliness she felt in the deep of her heart, a loneliness that had followed her since her childhood.*

*He took a step closer, his voice growing deeper, rattling her core with his rich accent.*
"Then...do you...fear me?"

*Lady Éowyn turned around and looked up at him. Her bright blue eyes looked innocently into his, and she smiled. Her light voice was soft and melodic as she replied.*
"Why would I fear you, my lord? You have always been gentle with me."

"But you shiver so..."
*He lifted his hands as if to rub her upper arms, but did not dare touch her. He lowered them once more.*
