I woke up to the sound of beeping monitors and to a nasty headache brewing at the back of my skull. Sitting up, I glanced around me only to realize that I was in a hospital room, with an IV containing a dark crimson liquid connected to my vein and a whole bunch of multivitamins stacked at my bedside table.
I vaguely remembered the events of last night. How I had been taken hostage by Kael and Caelum who still thinks I am responsible for Chalice's child loss. I also couldn't shake out the shock I'd felt when I realized that my supposed saviour was their brother, Zevran, and how worried he had seemed when he brought me in.
"You're awake?" A deep groggy voice snapped me out of my reverie. My heart pounded against my chest as I slowly turned to see who it was, gasping when I was met with a swollen-eyed Zevran whose hair looked as rough as a bird's nest.
His dark rimmed eyes stared at me intently for a moment and then he whispered; "Do you feel pain anywhere?"
