She woke up to see two faces. She blinked twice and she clearly saw Xenia and Livia seated by her side with smiles on their faces.
She sat up and looked straight to them.
"We've been waiting for you to wake up My Lady." Livia said smiling and this only made Reina questioned herself why they were smiling.
"Is anything the matter?." She said with weak eyes.
"His highness had arrived." Xenia said to her and her eyes widened.
"His highness is..is here?." She said getting up when Xenia held her shoulders.
"You aren't too strong to move around My Lady." She was worried she might black out again.
"No Xenia I'm fine okay? I need to go see His Highness." She said with pleading eyes.
"I can't stop you My Lady. But we must tell you he's angry at the moment and.. the rest I can't say, just go see him yourself." She allowed Reina climbed out of bed and she ran to Lorcan's room.
She heard groans like he was in pain. She didn't know if she should go in or just stay out.
Her heart was racing. Her body ached for him and her arms really wanted to hug him he's been away for a days and she couldn't wait to see her Husband.
She held the doorknob and flung the door open. He was sitting on the ground looking angrily at the floor clenching his teeth.
Reina stood at the door terrified. She hadn't seen this part of him before. That wasn't even the problem. She looked down to his clothes and she could tell it was blood-soaked.
(Gasps) she gasped and quickly covered her mouth with her hands and he slowly turned to loo at her. She looked at him with teary eyes. She was hurt, scared, sad. All at the same time.
She slowly walked to him and he was still sitting at his spot. He didn't move an inch but his eyes were on her.
"W..what happened?." Her voice was shaky and unstable. She walked to him and knelt in front of him. Her eyes raked him and he lowered his gaze immediately. She saw his blood-soaked robe then she looked at him.
"I want to be alone." He said not looking at her.
"You're bleeding." She wore a sad and worried look.
"Go Reina. I want to be alone and I don't want to break the promise I made to you. He ordered but this wife acted stubborn.
"I'm not leaving you and I'm not scared! ." She replied. She was scared of his next move. She didn't know what he'd do cause he was already really angry but what could she do? She had missed him so much and now he was here she wouldn't go anywhere.
"I don't want to speak Reina just let me be alone." He groaned in pain and Reina couldn't hold it anymore. Tears welled up in her eyes and it rolled down her cheeks.
She couldn't control her tears and she let it all out. She sobbed and he slowly looked up at her.
"Why are you crying?."
"You're in pain Your Highness." She sobbed.
"You now cry cause I'm in pain?." His eyes raked her and her knew she wasn't okay. He wondered what had happened while he was away.
"You're hurt Lorcan, you're bleeding." She wrapped her arms around his chest and hugged him really tight but pulled away when he hissed in pain.
"I'm sorry." She said cupping his face. Then she saw a cut at his cheek. The wound was fresh and dried blood surrounded it and this made her cry more.
"Stop Crying Reina." He said softly wiping her tear away.
"I can't." She stared into his eyes and then to the wound again. Then she left the room and came back with a Kit in her hand.
She knelt and treated his wounds while he stared at her.
"You don't look okay." He brought his hand to her face when she caught it and slowly kept it down.
She shook her head. "Just be quiet and let me take care of you." She looked away from him and continued with her work.
"Stubborn Wife." He grinned and she felt a bit relieved that he wasn't in so much pain seeing him smile like that.
"Come, come to the bed and lay down." She helped him got up and he walked to the bed and laid then she continued cleaning his wounds.
There were lots of cuts on his chest. She bleeded inside as she saw them on his body.
"You surprise me Wife." He looked at her with his head on the pillow.
"Sometimes you act like you don't care and now you're crying cause I'm in pain." He grinned.
She didn't respond to him she just looked down to clean up his wounds.
"I'm talking to you Wife." He knotted his brow.
Reina missed him but she was too mad. Why did he go for a war without telling her and why did he take so much time there? Why didn't he write a letter to her?. Didn't he cared of how she'd feel? Didn't he care if she'd be okay without him for days???
"Are you angry with me?." He sat up as he saw her packed the tools back into the box and was about getting up.
He caught her hand just in time and her back now faced him. She wouldn't stay mad for long would she? How long would she continue to ignore him? He was already in so much pain but why didn't he care of how she'd feel?.
Lorcan got up and walked to her. He stood behind her and slowly held her waist as he kissed her neck.
She so missed his touch. She enjoyed what was happening right now but she was angry. She turned to look at him and softly pushed his chest.
"Don't touch me!." She said angrily and he could tell she was hurt.
"I know you're angry with me." He replied as he took a step Forward.
"Don't come close to me." She pointed a finger at him.
"Reina I.." he said but was called off.
"Don't talk to me either!." Tears rolled down her cheek again. She was hurt but it was just angry tears.
"You left without informing me, you stayed three days without thinking of how I'd feel. You could have at least wrote a letter but you didn't. Do you know what I had to face for days all because of you?." He stared at her as she cried she struggled to speak cause her lips were cold and her throat was already dry from crying. The way she looked at him made him feel she already hated him and he now disgusted her.
He was hated all his life by his brothers and most persons but now his own wife was hating him.
No he couldn't take it. It could come from anyone else but not from Reina.
"I don't want to speak to you." She turned to leave. She took two steps then she stopped walking. She felt her head spin everything was blurry and then it went black.
She fainted and Lorcan caught her just in time before she fell.
"Reina?." He called with a worried look on his face. He carried her princess style and laid her on the bed.
"Reina? Reina?." He gently tapped her face waking her up but she wasn't waking up.
