fearfully
In scared manner
Fearfully means in a manner showing fear: She glanced fearfully over her shoulder.
It also serves as an intensifier meaning extremely or terribly, now somewhat old-fashioned: The house was fearfully cold.
This second sense connects to the idea of something so extreme it inspires fear or awe.
