Chloe gasped, sitting up as her eyes shot open. Viktor instantly took her hands in his, staring at her in concern. She glanced at him, and relaxed slightly, before burying her face into his chest. Viktor wrapped his arms around her, rubbing the back of her head in a soothing manner.
"I thought I was going to die," she whispered, tightly holding onto his shirt.
"It's okay, you're safe baby," Viktor reassured, holding her close.
"There was... There was a bear, and then, then a man... He was so pale, and-and his eyes-"
"Relax," Viktor frowned, holding her tighter. "You're safe baby girl. You're with me. No one will harm you. That man was... A friend."
"Really?" She sniffed, looking up at him.
"Yeah," Viktor nodded, cupping her cheek. "Everything is okay. You're with me."
