Chapter 11
Chapter 0011 I am not threatening , I kept saying in my mind .
I am a friend .
Shadow sniffed my fingers , and I lowered my hand to the ground .
Then , to everyones surprise , Shadow licked my fingertips and trotted the rest of the way over to me , allowing me to pet him .
I smiled as my fingers ran through his soft fur and he panted excitedly as his tail thumped on the ground , nearly knocking me over as the ground shook under his weight .
H… how did you do that ? Matt asked , shocked .
Shadow doesnt like strangers .
I shrugged casually .
Ive always been good with animals , I confessed .
When was young , I used to have a dog as well .
Her name was Caramel because she was the color of Caramel .
Matt snickered at the name , and I smiled .
Shadow rubbed himself all over me before returning to Matts side .
My parents got her for me because they were never home .
Caramel kept me company , I finished explaining .
Something flashed in Matts eyes as he fixated his attention on his dog .
It almost looked like sadness .
My dad is never home , he murmured .
So , Shadow keeps me company .
He protects me from bad and conniving people .
Thats why he bit the last tutor .
She was conniving and only agreed to tutor me so she could get close to my father I raised my brows .
How could a woman do such a thing ? I felt sick at the very thought that she was using this little boy only for his father .
Who was his father to this woman ? How about I bring Shadow back inside so you can finish getting to know one another , Adam suggested as he walked towards the dog who only growled at him .
Matt smirked .
Careful Adam ; or you might end up dog food , Matt warned .
Adam mumbled something under his breath that I didnt quite get but he managed to get Shadow and bring him into the villa while I stayed behind with Matt .
Matt stared at me ; his arms folded across his chest as he examined me .
You have good reflexes and aim , he murmured .
But that doesnt mean you are strong or smart .
Well , if its my brain you are worried about , I am top of my class in all my subjects .
I graduated high school with high honors and Im currently a college student , I told him .
I felt a little silly felling all this to a 7 year old .
But I could tell he was mature for his age , and he was having trouble trusting my capabilities .
As for my strength , as 1 said , Im training to be a Gamma warrior .
How can I prove my strength to you ? He smirked ; giving me a look I was starting to grow accustomed fo .
I knew that meant he was up I stepped backward , narrowing my eyes .
Lets play a game , he finally said , surprising me .
Okay , what kind of game ? Escape .
Ever play it ? up to something .
Chapter 0011 Escape was a game where the opponent tries to escape the other persons hold .
Ive only played it with others around my age , never ones much younger than me .noveldrama
This should certainly be interesting .
Would you wish to escape from me ? I asked him .
He nodded .
I might be 7 , but Im very strong , he said , putting his hands on his hips .
I smiled .
I dont doubt that , I told him .
Okay , lets give it a shot .
Before he was even ready , I already had him tackled to the ground .
I must say, he did put up a pretty fair fight .
I could tell hes done some training , and it made me wonder why he trained so hard at a young age .
It took me a minute to get my bearings and get control of the situation , but I eventually had him pinned and he couldnt move .
He struggled against me , and I just smiled as he attempted to get out of my hold .
I thought you were stronger than that ? I teased .
His cheeks grew pink from embarrassment , and I laughed wholeheartedly .
If become your tutor , we can work on this , I assured him .
As he attempted to escape from me , I heard some footsteps from nearby and I assumed Adam was returning .
But then I heard another set of footsteps ; Matt must have heard them as well because he froze and looked in the direction of the sound .
I watched as his face lit up in delight ; a look I had yet to see from him .
Dad !! He yelled excitedly .
I looked in the same direction and my entire heart fell deep into my stomach .
His father , the man of the house , was none other than Gavin Landry .
