Chapter 26: Unknown Sickness

Dax POV

My heart sunk at seeing Danica unconscious. I immediately got her off the floor and carefully put her back into her bed.

I had no idea that she had gotten sick again. It was surprising that she had even come to me for help. But I'd never let her be ignored even if I was mad.

I immediately summoned my private physician to look her over. He began tending to her mysterious illness as best as he could, but I knew that he may not be enough.

She wouldn't have just come for help if this wasn't serious. I knew it wasn't just her morning sickness like before. Danica was incredibly pale and was barely able to get to me.

I continued to check on her throughout the day, and it seemed she was getting even weaker. Her breathing wasn't very regular either; it seemed as if her body wanted to give up and couldn't fight the illness.

What was she going through? This was so nerve wracking to watch. I didn't want her to get any sicker. The baby was being affected greatly by this illness too.
