Raven is silent as she watched her blood flowing through the tube and filling the blood bag as she softly squeezes the stress ball in her hand. She is spacing out without having anything specific to think about in her mind. For the first time, Lorcan is not here to keep her company. He is busy having a conversation with his father, and Raven doesn’t want to interrupt their important conversation just to call Lorcan and ask him to come here with her. Lorcan and his father had a lot of things to catch up. Besides, Raven can do this by herself. She used to have her blood drawn by herself alone. Raven let out a huge breath, the silence is deafening that it made her feel uncomfortable. Raven couldn’t help but tilt her head and look at the empty chair across her where Lorcan used to sit and just watch over her. She smiled by herself as she remembered Lorcan’s funny reactions and his constant pestering whenever he comes here with her. Lorcan was talking nonstop whenever he comes here w
Celia groaned and stretched her limbs on the bed as soon as unwanted guests had left the room. “What took you so long?” Celia grumbled as the Pack Doctor walked to her side and replaced the empty fake blood bag, with a new fake one. The Pack Doctor is also the same person who invented the fake blood bag to make Celia’s act look more convincing. Using starblooms, a small mushroom like plant that grows in the forests near Packs, he discovered that he could use it to make a convincing fake blood. He just had to dye the yellow plant red and mix it with some liquid, and it already looks like a blood. The interesting thing about starblooms is, once it is contaminated or tamper with, it slowly evaporates and disappears. So even though the starbloom liquid is not connected to Celia’s veins, it evaporates by itself making it appear like Celia’s body had absorbed it. Celia sighed when the Pack Doctor did not answer her and just continued with his job. “It’s so tiring to pretend to be as
There was crying when Lorcan arrived at Celia’s room. He thought Celia had woken up, but why do the people sounded like she had just died?The door to Celia’s room is open. Lorcan slowly walked towards her room, not really feeling excited to see her as he thought he would be.Instead he felt dreadful as he took a step closer to Celia’s room. Lorcan stood by the doorframe without making any noise. He looked inside the room and he saw Celia sitting up with a smile on her face. She truly is awake, she even looked like she didn’t just fought for her life. Axel, Savina, Colton and Beta Jericho were all inside the room along with the Pack Doctor. Savina and Colton were crying in happiness to finally be able to see Celia awake once again. They waited too long for this, finally Celia is safe. “Lorcan!” Celia beamed happily when she noticed Lorcan standing by the door.All the heads in the room turned to look at him. Lorcan forced a smile and finally entered the room. “How are you feelin
“Do you like it?” Colton asks Celia, seeing how she hungrily eats the Pizza Margherita that he bought for her. Celia nodded her head while still chewing a mouthful of Pizza. Colton smiled seeing the way she eats. It reminded him of how she looked like when she was little. She really love pizzas even before when she was still a little child.He’s glad to see, that at least that thing he knows about her still didn’t change after all these years.“How are you feeling?” Colton asks her daughter once again. “Dad, I’m fine. Why do you keep asking that?” Celia chuckles sweetly like a sweet perfect daughter that she is not.Colton smiles, he also felt happy to see his daughter happy. Colton took in a deep breath, before asking a difficult question. “What doo you think about Lorcan?” He asks her with difficulty. Celia paused wondering why his father is asking her this kind of question. “I love him father, I already told you this before. Whether you like it or not, I’ll fight for him,” Cel
Raven never followed after Lorcan just as she had promised. Until now, she never made a single visit to Celia’s room after she learned the news that she’s already awake. Every day, Raven would force herself to get up and check on Celia, but every time she reaches the hall to Celia’s room, her feet would turn on its own and she would just find herself back from where she came from. She found herself unable to approach Celia, because of her buried hard feelings that she never recognized she had been holding from her before. Raven realized that she had never really faced her true feelings towards Celia before. She thought all the disappointments and all the wounds in her heart caused by Celia had already healed. She had no idea that all of it has always been in there, buried deep inside her heart. Raven never acknowledged those resentments and hard feelings that she has. She only pushed it aside by drowning herself in work and thinking of something else. These things never helped in
Lorcan missed Raven so so much. Just a day without seeing her face and hearing her voice kills him so much. With every passing second, all he could think about was Raven. He wondered how she was, he wondered if she had eaten, and most of all, he wondered if she was okay. Before, Lorcan’s thoughts would always run like this, but he only always had Celia in his thoughts. Now, he no longer thought about Celia. All that mattered to him was Raven. Lorcan yawned once again. He doesn’t know how many times he has yawned. His mind felt groggy because of a lack of sleep. Last night, he had difficulty sleeping because, for the first time since he shared the same bed with Raven, he had to sleep without Raven beside him. He couldn’t sleep with Raven’s close scent; it was her scent that calmed him down and lulled him to sleep. Lorcan just wants to leave Celia and rush to Raven’s side. However, he had no choice. Celia wants him here, and he can’t refuse. Celia’s father, Colton, begs him to do wh
Savina and Axel actually came to visit Celia with one purpose, and that is to tell her the truth. Savina thought that it would be better if they just told Celia everything instead of waiting for her to remember her memories. Wouldn’t it be better if Celia heard the truth from them instead of waiting for her to remember her memories and let her find out that they had been lying to her all along? Savina thought it would be unfair for Celia if they lied in front of her face and kept secrets from her. It’s no different from playing with her feelings, and she would only hate them later on once she finds out the truth. Besides, Savina and Axel couldn’t wait anymore. Who knows when will Celia remember all her lost memories? Savina is getting worried the longer his son stays with Celia. Ever since Celia woke up, Lorcan has never left Celia’s side. She also heard from her attendants that Lorcan did not sleep in his room last night. He slept with Celia. Raven must be feeling devastated and
Lorcan stood up straight when the door to Celia’s room opened. He approached his parents when they both came out of the door.“What was that about?” Lorcan asks them in a small whisper so Celia won’t hear them inside the room.Axel sighed, but his mother said nothing. She slowly closed the door to Celia’s room before stepping forward with a gloomy look in her eyes. When Lorcan saw this, his brows furrowed. What problem do they have again? What exactly did they talk about inside the room that he had to leave?Axel fell silent and averted his gaze from his son when he saw the look in his eyes. He glanced at his wife, waiting for her to speak, but she also remained silent. Lorcan’s eyes darted back and forth on his father and mother before settling on Axel when he spoke. “There is something we need to tell you, son,” Axel breathed out with a heavyweight inside his chest. He burrowed his hands deep inside his pockets to stifle his emotions. The crease on Lorcan’s forehead deepened with
