Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 241

Chapter 241: Hayden

Lillian opened the fridge and pulled out a bottle of water, taking a few refreshing sips as she made her way toward the sofa. Finding a cozy spot to settle into, she glanced at the boy sitting nearby and spoke gently, “This is Dracovia. You’re safe here now. You can move freely without fearing anyone chasing after you.”

The boy’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Why?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

For as long as he could remember, his life had been a series of chains—treated like a slave, shuffled from one place to another, never truly belonging anywhere. He had often dreamed of a savior descending from the heavens, someone who would whisk him away from this endless torment. But time and again, his hopes had been shattered, leaving him numb and resigned.

Just when he had almost given up hope, this girl appeared like an angel sent to rescue him. She had brought him here, to this place, and even offered him freedom. It all seemed too good to be true.

“No particular reason,” Lillian replied calmly. “I saved you because I saw a spark inside you—a fire that shouldn’t be extinguished. I didn’t want you to become someone else’s plaything. Taking you to Dracovia was because I believed it would be safer for you here. Whatever grudges you carry, save your energy. The future stretches far ahead.”

The boy looked at her quietly, absorbing her words. Then, with steady resolve, he said, “I’ll follow you. You saved me, so I’ll dedicate my life to you. I swear I’ll never betray you.”

The allure of freedom was powerful, yet he could not forget the image of her drawing her bow—unyielding, steadfast, and unbreakable. That strength was something he longed to follow.

Lillian rested her chin on her hand and spoke softly, “I don’t keep useless people around me.”

“I won’t let you down,” he promised firmly.

She rose and extended her hand to help him up. “If you ever betray me, I’ll make sure your fate is worse than death.”

“Understood,” he answered without hesitation.

“And what is your name?”

“I’ve had none since I arrived in Dracovia. Please, give me one.”
