Hope felt a warm light that streamed across her closed eyelids.But not bright enough to hurt her eyes, as another spark danced on her left hand.
Hope groaned softly when sudden pain shot through her neck, tears pooled in her eyes. It hurt so much…
Hope tried to raise her hand to touch her neck, but someone held her gently and a soft voice whispered in her ears.
"Ssstt, it's okay Hope, you are okay…"
Hope whimpered faintly. Her neck hurts.
Then, Hope felt there was something cool, and wet pressed against her throbbing neck.It gave a little comfort, but she couldn't help but cry even though she didn't open her eyes. It hurt so much. Hope sobbed.
"It is okay, Hope, calm down, don't cry…" though his voice sounded gentle, but it laced with panic when he shouted to the door. "SEREFINA!"
Hope didn't want to stop crying, she wanted to curl into a ball until the pain on her neck and chest went away, yet her body was too impossibly heavy to move, and her chest felt like she had just been stabbed, which was true.
Hope cried harder.
"Don't cry please… tell me which part hurts?" his voice sounded more desperate now.
Her aching neck, and chest throbbed painfully again, and she sobbed even harder.
"SEREFINA!" he shouted again, and in the next second, Hope could hear the door swung open and several footsteps entered the room.
Hope couldn't talk, it felt like her voice failed her, and her throat was very dry.
"Drink this." Kace helped Hope to sit down by carefully holding on her waist and supporting her back.But the bandage on her neck made his gaze turn dark. He hated it when he saw Hope was hurt, especially when it was because of him.
This was not the way Kace wanted to mark her, but then, he didn't have any other option left. Kace could just be grateful that he didn't lose her.
Something touched Hope's bottom lips and then a soft, cool liquid brushed against her tongue as she slightly opened her mouth.
As a wave of cold relief washed over the dryness in her throat, her breathing was at ease.Though the pain had not dissipated yet.
"Hurt…" Hope whimpered with her eyes closed when she found her voice again.
"Which part is hurt?" Kace's panicked voice could be heard, he tried to hold her as gentle as he could.But he was also trying to calm himself from his worry.
"My chest… neck…" Hope replied ever so softly, her eyebrows wrinkled in discomfort.
"Serefina, she is in pain," Kace said through his gritted teeth. Hope could only imagine how his expression was right now. Because her eyes still closed, unwilling to cooperate with her.
And then, Hope felt someone touch her hand. Serefina? Most likely it was her.
In the next second, Hope's breathing eased as a relief washed over her being, and Kace put her back into the soft pillow.
"You will feel better when you wake up again," Serefina said and Hope was half way back to her deep slumber.
==============
The second time Hope woke up, she opened her eyes, feeling dizzy because her surroundings suddenly swayed along with the whole room.
Raising her hand, she touched her aching neck where she felt the thick bandage placed.But the notion made her head throbbing in dizziness.
And then, Hope's eyes caught a small window in the room, which was a porthole.
She was on a ship.
Her eyebrows furrowed, but then, she heard a faint snoring sound from beside her. And there she found Kace next to her, sleeping with his head rested on his arms while his hand held hers.
At that time, every memory came to Hope's mind like a force.
Hope remembered the severe pain that she felt when she watched an arrow pierced through her chest. And how her blood dripped, and also the horror in Kace's scared expression.
Hope touched her chest carefully and felt the dull pain there. It seemed her wound had closed. However, what about her neck? The pain was almost the same as the one on her chest, yet she didn't remember that she hurt her neck.
Or maybe, someone had shot an arrow at her neck as well? The thought of that sent chills down to her spine.
Maybe because of Hope's sudden move, the man, who was sleeping peacefully beside her, suddenly raised his head, his blue eyes flashed in alarm, scanning the room for the possible danger.
Kace had been like that since Hope lost her consciousness. He couldn't really put his guard down. Every time there was a movement, he would jolt awake.
But, when his blue eyes fell on Hope's face, they softened. "Hey, my little angel…" he greeted her with his voice as he reached for a glass of water.
Hope blinked her eyes and let Kace help her drink by supporting her back.
"How are you feeling? Your chest and neck are still hurt?" Kace put aside the glass when Hope drank half of it.
"…little bit…" Hope's voice was barely a whisper when she spoke.
"Are you hungry?" Kace smiled when he could hear her voice again. It had been a long time, and Kace really missed her.
Hope nodded faintly.
Now that Kace had mentioned it, Hope could feel her stomach grumble as if there was a horde of horse inside.
Definitely, Kace could hear that too.
He laid her back on the soft pillow and walked towards the door, but he didn't leave the room as he talked to someone there.
From the voice who replied to him, it seemed like it was Lana that he was talking to.
Hope wanted to ask where they were, but she felt very lethargic.
"We are on the ship, we are on our way back home," Kace replied to her unspoken question, and sat down beside Hope again.
It was strange that Kace somehow knew what she wanted to ask.But Hope was too tired to find out, therefore, after she finished her meal, she went back to her deep slumber.
