Chapter 24 - A Week

"Is she okay?" Orion asked the physician after he was done with a full examination of Sasha. "Same results as yesterday, she's still physically alright. Although she is a little malnourished and needs to eat more." the physician gave a full report."Thank you, you may leave." Orion sighed and dismissed the physician. "I shall take my leave then." he quickly rushed out.

..."What happened back there? I hope you weren't considering committing suicide." Orion's presence gave off a frighteningly cold aura. He stood right in front of her, his perfect brows furrowed and his arms folded across his broad chest. "No, of course not." she shook her head extremely confused herself. "Then what was that?" Orion asked exasperated. Sasha sighed. She had no choice but to tell him what was going on. Back home in any other normal situation, she'd never resort to sharing her problems with others, even Loise her best friend had to literally strangle anything out of her. But this was different, she was in a foreign place and she had no idea how to solve this particular problem! "A voice called out to me while I was sleeping and then I couldn't control myself...I almost fell to my death but l couldn't even-" her voice trailed off. Sensing that she seemed upset he didn't push the matter any further. "Breakfast will be ready soon, I have some important matters to attend to outside the capital so I'll be away for about a week." Studying the disturbed expression on her delicate face he didn't want to cause her any more discomfort. "I'll go get the maids." Orion turned sharply and left the room...

"Sire, you called." Luc bowed before Orion in the highest reverence. "What happened to Miss Sasha shouldn't repeat itself. Assign her aide to keep charge over her at night while you stand guard at her door, I hope I have made my orders clear enough, you may leave now." "Yes, Sire." Luc exited his presence eager to know how she was doing.
