As soon as Claw landed, he didn't even give himself time to rest after the eventful night; he immediately found the doctor who went in to give the beautiful, sexy patient a check-up with Clifton 'Claw' Goliath in tow. Claw waited for the doctor to report and the patient stirs in her sleep due to the voices around and fluttered her eyes open. The doctor frowned slightly in suspicion because his sedative was supposed to knock her out for the next 12 or so hours.
Claw immediately held her hands softly when he realized she was awake, oblivious to the doctor's thoughts and looked at her with worry on his face - all meanness, coldness, ruthlessness and murderousness not visible on his face. It was like he was a different man, a worried husband on edge about his wife's health!
However, as sweet, kind and polite as he looked, it didn't make the celestial women feel any less ill at ease. She felt uncomfortable with his hand on hers but try as she might she couldn't gather enough strength to take her hand away. With fear visible in her eyes, Claw said "Don't worry now, you're safe," he brushed away locks of hair that was on her forehead behind her ear and smiled gently at her "Come, drink a bit" he continued, holding a glass with a straw on her mouth. Then suddenly the woman realized she was thirsty and obliged and took a sip.
The doctor warned not to drink much cause she was on a drip still then proceeded with his check up. Claw stood away from the bed to ensure the doctor had enough space, then he had the doctor ask her to speak.
"Do you know your name?" the doctor asked and the woman shook her head in denial confusion visible in her eyes. Claw got confused as well and started to get antsy as the doctor asked her a few more questions to which she couldn't answer, more accurately, couldn't remember. The doctor recommended more tests to be done and after a whole morning of tests the doctor stood infront of the ice skulpture, Claw, and shook his head as he said "She has two broken ribs, a fractured hand and just a minor concussion. These are from the accident," he paused finding the strength to say the next sentence "The amnesia she has, however, is not evident to have come from the head injuries sustained in the accident. I think it's from the drugs, I'm still waiting for test to know which drug caused the amnesia cause she was injected with multiple drugs. So.. We don't know yet if it's temporary amnesia or long term. We'll have to monitor her in the next few days to tell."
Claw became eerie silent and took a deep breath. God knows he wanted to re-kill and re-kill that bastard over and over again till he was sixteen feet under. His murderous aura wasn't missed by the woman lying on the bed and she shivered in fear. Claw calmed himself down a notch when he saw the fear in her eyes, and ordered the doctor to speed up the tests. He then sent a text to his men to speed the search of the mastermind. He needed to kill that f^cker for doing this to his beloved.
But for now he had to calm himself, to coax his babygirl. He sat by the side of the bed and held her hand in his. The fear in her eyes made him nearly loose control, he didn't like it when the one he loved feared him. He had lived his life being feared and the only person he didn't want fear him was this woman lying here. She kept her mouth shut as she looked at him wearily and he took his time in silence hoping the frosty atmosphere could dissipate soon. However the more silent they became, the icier it got.
The silence of the room was disrupted by a nurse with a tray of food. The smell of the food made the woman aware that she was hungry and she shifted her attention to the tray. The man insisted on feeding her and she just complied. After the meal, he took a bowl of warm water from the bathroom and wiped her body with a warm towel, she was too afraid to care or deny his gestures. However when she noticed there was no hostility in his eyes and the pain that settled in his eyes when he saw her bruises, her heart warmed up a bit and instantly she felt a pang of guilt assault her.
The more the man cared for her, feeding her, wiping her and even changing her clothes, the more guilt washed over her. She couldn't understand why. She felt more need to grab back her slippery memories. She needed to know why her heart and body couldn't accept this man that seems so nice with her.
