Marius bid Laina goodnight and left her room. After closing the door, Laina walked over to the bed. Before Marius left, he helped her to move Dante so he was sleeping on the right side of the bed.
Laina sat down on the right side of the bed. She looked over Dante as she laid down on the pillow. For a moment, she entertained the idea of sleeping next to him. But the more she thought about it, the weirder it felt.
She quickly sat back up and was about to leave the bed when she felt a hand grab onto her. Laina was surprised to see Dante's hand on her wrist. She looked over to him, wondering if he was awake.
His eyes were still shut but he seemed to murmur in his sleep. Laina leaned in closer, hoping to catch what he was trying to say as she tried to remove her hand from his.
But the more she struggled, the tighter his grip.
"Where are you going… stay by my side…" Dante mumbled in his sleep.
