Moon POV
I was welcomed with a soft bed, as I tried opening my eyes, but they were just too tired to open. I felt my head, throbbing in pains, and I shut my eyes tightly. What the heck happened to me?
Letting out a soft sigh, I finally managed opened my eyes, as I was welcomed with the white ceiling, which looked blurry, but became cleared after a few seconds, and that was when I realized that I was laying on my bed, in my room. Tilting my head weakly to my right hand side, my eyes closed immediately, as the sunlight shone brightly on my weak eyes, igniting the headache.
Taking my hand slowly to my head, I touched my forehead, which had a damp towel, laying on it, and I just couldn’t help wondering what happened. I remembered going to see Khalid, he scolded me, and I came to my room crying, I heard growls from a far distance, and decided to check it out, and…. I gasped sharply, and covered my mouth with my hand, as everything became clear to me. Khalid! Where’s he? Is he ok?
I quickly yanked the duvet off my body, and tried getting up, and that was when I realized that someone was sitting on the chair beside the bed, with his head, laying on the bed, on my right. The heck! Who’s this?
I looked closely at the person, and almost cringed at the sight before me, Jack? What the heck is he doing here? Who allowed him in here? Oh no! I’m so screwed! I quickly checked myself to be sure he didn’t do anything to me, and thankfully, he didn’t do anything.
Heaving a small sigh, I tried sitting up, but winced in pains, and laid back, as I felt a sharp pains, cut through my back, like a dagger was sucked there. Everything came playing in my head again, as my eyes widened. They… they poisoned me, and I blacked out, how did we got here? Now I’m more worried about my brother, I just hope he’s ok.
With all the strength in me, I stood up, fighting the urge to screamed out in pains, and once I was sitting on the bed, I slowly removed my hand from under the jerk’s head, before swinging my legs down the bed, after which I got on my feet, before staggering to the bathroom.
Stepping into the bathroom, I staggered to the WC, and urinated in it, before standing up, and cleaned myself, after which I walked out of the bathroom, trying to stable my eyes, that kept spinning. I guess the poison is still affecting me, I don’t expect it not to though.
Stepping into my room, I found Jack already on his feet, looking around the room like he was looking for something. Geez! This guy is such an asshole. What the heck does he want now? Is he trying to steal something? He better not.
“What are you doing?” I asked almost faintly, as I started seeing double, my eyes trying to close by themselves, my head hurting like it was set on fire, and all effort to keep them opened, proved abortive.
“Are you ok Moon?” Her voice sounded worriedly, as I felt a hand around my waist.
I pushed him off with the remaining strength in me, as I staggered back, clutching my head, which is now heavy, like its going to fall off my neck. What the heck is this pains?
I staggered back, until I couldn’t hold it anymore, as everything blacked out…
Alpha Khalid POV
Slowly, I opened my eyes, but closed them back again, as I felt my eyes heavy, like a load was tied on them. What the heck is happening?
After what seemed like forever, I finally managed to open them, as I was welcomed with the white ceiling, which was looking blurry. My vision became clear after a few seconds, and that was when I realized that I was in my room.
“Oh you’re awake.” Mother’s worried voice came on, and tilting my head to the direction of the voice, I found her sitting on the chair, looking all pale and worried, with tears in her eyes.
“Mother?” I called weakly, as I took my hand to my head, and touched my forehead, before letting my hand fall back weakly on the bed. I feel so weak, I feel like my whole strength has been drained off.
“Khalid are you ok? Are you feeling any pains? Are you hungry? Do you need me to make you something?” She asked worriedly, as she held my hand.
I shook my head negatively, while trying to remember what happened. In a flash, everything came playing in my head like a movie, and I almost screamed. Moon! Where’s she? Is she safe? Did they take her away?
“Moon!” I called weakly, but worriedly, as I tried standing up, but fell back weakly.
“Moon is fine, she’s sleeping in her room, you need to rest please.” Mother said, as she drew the duvet to cover me.
A closed my eyes frustratingly, as I wondered what could be the problem with me, why the pains always? Why can’t I seem to get rid of it?
“Who brought us home?” I asked weakly, remembering that Moon lost consciousness, while trying to save me.
“Jack did. You have nothing to worry about, your sister is ok, she’s in her room, I’ll send her in here once she’s awake.” She smiled weakly at me, and I nodded.
“You have to take this herb, the physician said you’ll be fine after taking it.” She said, holding out a mug to me, which contained a brownish liquid substance, that looked like coffee, but didn’t smell like one.
I groaned, as I managed to sit up, with the help of mom. I took the herb from her, and gulped everything down in one shot, ewww! The taste is the most disgusting thing I’ve tasted. As much as I want to decline it, I can’t possibly do that, knowing how mom would react. I laid back on the bed after I was done drinking.
“What is happening Khalid? What are you restraining your demon from?” Mother’s voice came on after a long silence, asking the forbidden question…
