"... or I might kill someone."
I instantly tensed up as Hugo's voice reeked with killing intent. His grip around my waist tightened, making me feel like I was being embraced by the sun with his body heat. Just what made him so angry to the point he wanted to snap someone's neck?
'Wait... was it my neck he wants to snap?' my eyes dilated, gazing down at him. 'Whatever that upset him, I am the closest to him. So, I am responsible for calming him down."
Afraid to lose my head in a moment of rage, I instinctively wrapped my limbs around him. I rested my chin on top of his head, stroking his back gently.
"Are you just upset?" I asked worriedly, letting out a deep sigh. "Are you sure nothing hurts? You don't hurt anywhere?"
My question somehow made his grip around my waist loosen a bit. It made me think he simply wanted someone to talk to. So with this in mind, I showed a bit more concern. Not that I was faking it. I was sincerely concerned about his welfare.
