Vanessa’s POV

After I had woken up at the hospital, it took me more than enough minutes to try and decipher my location.

My brain was in a haze and I had to pause the different thoughts in my head for a moment before it finally dawned on me that I was in the hospital.

I tried standing up from the bed and resting my back against the head of the bed before I watch the Queen walk out of the bathroom with my daughter in her arms.

I was mesmerized for a moment. I never knew Richard’s mom would care this much. I actually thought she was this stone cold, witch from the North of a cold region. Maybe people really do change and I hope this change is something that’ll be of benefit.

Seeing my daughter again was the best thing that had ever happened to me and I’m really glad to be able to see her and grateful that I didn’t die in the arms of Dae and her friend from something I knew nothing about.

My eyes got blurry with tears, but I promised myself already that I wouldn’t cry not even
