The burning pain in his throat was the first thing that Theo could feel as he slowly regained consciousness, it was almost as if his throat was on flames and no matter how hard he tried to speak there were no words that could come out from his mouth.
He was not able to move his hands, his entire body felt like he just finished running marathon, utterly exhausted. Even breathing without feeling pain felt luxurious for him now.
As he tried to endure the pain in his throat, the memories of the last thing that happened to him came back, flooding like a broken dam and it shook him to the core.
Feeling startled, Theo opened his eyes abruptly and found someone sitting beside his bed.
The sudden light flooded his optical senses and he grimaced because his eyes hurt as he couldn't see anything clearly, who was this woman, but when he heard her voice, he finally realized it was the witch.
