Chapter 421: Hangover
I feel like shit, I feel so fucking awful and the pounding in my head made it way worse. I groaned like a child, tossing on my bed hoping the headache would stop but nope, just the slight movent made it worse. Forcing my aching body up I held my head, Maybe I shouldn’t have drank so much because this was the worst hangover ever!
I opened my eyes and my vision was a fucking ss, I shut my eyes rubbing them with my hands before forcing them open again to get a clearer vision. I darted my eyes to the nightstand and I almost thanked God for the aspirin and water there.
Wasting no ti I took a pill and then water, groaning in relief, taking more water before sighing. Dropping the empty glass I hit my body back on the bed and covered myself with the comforter and just like that I fell into another abyss.
But in that very second I felt eyes on
but I chose to ignore.

It felt so comfortable now and my headache was long gone and I felt so good and I thought to myself never to drink like that again. Having a hangover is not a situation to be in, I can see why Grayson always scolds
not to drink, drinking is definitely not my jam it seems.
Yawning, I stretched, feeling light thanks to that aspirin, and loving the texture on my bed that felt like heaven.
Wait.
Bed?
I flashed my eyes open. Should I be in bed? How the fuck did I get here, didn’t I wander into the woods? Did I sohow walk my way back to my room, drunk?
Ugh! Forget it, don’t wanna think about that right now, I just want to sleep, and forget about everything, at least I wasn’t plagued by nightmares. I think.
"How long do you plan on sleeping?"
I gasped, sitting up instantly and darting my wide eyes to the owner of that voice. "S-Singe?"
"You good?" He asked with a faint smile.
"W-What are you doing here?" I passed a look around my room and then to him. He shrugged.
"Wait" I held my head. "Did you carry
back here?"
He paused and then his mouth hung open.
"Well?"
"Yes. Yes! I was the one who did"
I narrowed my eyes. "O... kay?"
He nods. "You were really wasted,"
Fuck! And he saw
like that? And dragged my ass back here? Now I just want the ground to open up and swallow
whole because the secondhand embarrassnt was sothing else.
"Dirt all over, no offense but..." he cleared his throat.
I panicked spreading open the comforter and sighed in intense relief seeing I was still in my black sundress.
"It would have been inappropriate to change you"
"Thanks"
"Dace would have killed "
"What?" I shot my head up.
"Nothing, really you drown the whole bottle?"
I groaned and rubbed my temple. "I guess I should be glad you were the one who found . Would have been way worse. It was sweet of you Singe, thank you"
A blush crept up his cheeks, it was odd seeing a muscular man like this blush but also cute to see.
"Countess"
"Emmaline is fine or Emma really. I think we have passed that right? You saw
in my most vulnerable state after all"
"Right," he nods. "Emma" he leaned further in his seat and I didn’t know why it caused a smile to find my lips when he used my na. "What Dan did was ssed up"
"Dan?"
He motioned to my neck and by instinct I rubbed it as the mory flooded in, so his na was Dan huh?
"It’s okay. I’m alive right?" I said with a shiver rembering Dace’s confession of breaking his two hands.
He probably just did that because soone touched his pawn.
I frowned at the thought.
"No, it’s not" he suddenly looked angry now. "No one will touch you again I promise"
"I think that is a big thing to promise you know, this place is crawling with werelions and I’m the only vampire here" I state swaying my legs off the bed.
"They won’t"
I wonder why he sounds so certain, but I guess he’s trying to make
feel better.
"I need a bath, I feel so..." I held my head. When he made no move to stand I faced him with folded arms and gave him a look.
"Right," he nods.
"Well?"
"Sorry just..." he jumped up his feet. "Just keeping my eye on you that’s all"
"I’m extrely capable of taking care of myself"
He raised an eyebrow.
"Okay fine I got drunk and needed saving, that doesn’t an I can’t take care of myself"
"Fine," he shrugged. "I will just get you lunch"
"Lunch?"
"You slept all through the day"
"Fuck" I mumbled and dipped my head in sha walking to the bathroom and shut myself there. I heard the door and I knew he was out now and I took a breath of relief.
Geez Emma, note to self never drink like that again! Stripping out of my gown I walked naked to the sink to rinse my face, the scratchy sensation ca to my throat again, and I groaned.
Raising my hand I brought it to my nose but froze as my eyes flashed open.
"No"
In panic, I stared at my empty finger. Where is my ring?!
"No, no, no, no!" I looked around to see if I dropped it while taking off my dress but it was nowhere to be seen. Please don’t tell
I lost it! Anything but that.
"Please no, please" I trembled, that ring was the only thing keeping
from going on a blood frenzy. That ring... more importantly the gem was made with Luther’s blood in case of ergency, just a whiff of it can dull my bloodlust, and that is why I always wore that ring no matter what.
Luther’s blood is the only blood I crave and now I can’t imagine what will happen if I go thirsty without any ans to sedate it. I have NEVER gone thirsty before well except that ti I was too stubborn to take Luther’s blood but I imdiately regret it. As much as I hate it I was a slave to it which only makes this situation worse.
"This can’t be happening" I held my throat with a heavy gulp and a trembling body.
How the fuck did I lose it? In the woods? Just thinking about my drunken state gave
a headache because everything is fuzzy and I don’t rember a thing.
