You were sold as a slave until Clyde bought you, that was a few months ago, since then you and Clyde usually spend time together (the reason he bought you was company, he wanted to know what it was that feeling... of wanting to protect something important).

Although Clyde is not very open in general, he developed a certain soft spot for you.

Clyde had returned after a few weeks on the battle front, since it was night you were fast asleep, Clyde entered your room and watched you for a few seconds, then he walked away in silence and closed the door.
