22 “Unconscious”
Cathain’s pov ~
I kept staring at the tiny figure in my embrace as i run towards my chamber instead of handing her over to her father, the duke.
I ordered Brayden to call the royal doctor and after reaching my room, i laid her down in my bed and tucked her silver hair, behind her ears.
Why is she like this?
Is she mad at because i didn’t attended our engagent ceremony or because she fall into the lake accidentally because of ?
Her blue jewel like eyes that used to shine had turned dark and her body was becoming more colder.
I put on another blanket over her body but she was still cold. Then a sudden realization hit . ‘Am such a dumbass!’
She has ice magic so cold mana flows into her body. Of course she will turn more cold as she isn’t able to control her mana in this state now.
She was becoming more colder and looking lifeless.
.....
‘So cold...’
At first i just hold her hands to pass my warmth to her but it was no use as she was freezing and i sighed.
‘Am doing this because she is sick, nothing else!’
I slowly leaned towards her cold lips and gently put mine above her.
‘So cold!’
I focused on passing my mana into her body and unexpectedly her cold mouth was very comfortable to my mouth which was passing burning hot mana in her body.
I could feel my cheeks burning up as my mouth wanted more then just passing mana.
My lips wanted to covet hers as my tounge wanted to Interwined with hers.
‘It’s normal...it’s normal to feel this way as we both have opposite mana...Her coldness calms my burning mana and mine warms up hers.’
I was shocked at my own thoughts. What the hell am i thinking?
I took a peck in her eyes which was still open but unconscious. I wonder how she would react if she saw this.
The boy she fears so much that she beco like this, but both tis it was who saved her!
At the first ti, it was who passed her air by mouth to mouth and now am also passing my own mana to her!
Why would she react this way?
What did i ever did to her?
Shouldn’t she be grateful to for saving her twice?
I ca back to my sense when i heard a knock in the door and took back my mouth from hers.
I fixed my appearance and said in a calm voice, “Co in.”
Then Brayden ca in with the royal doctor and i stood up from the bed for him to take a look at her.
The doctor examined her for a long ti and then stood up wuth a dejected face.
“Your Royal Highness, was her ladyship traumatised by sothing?”
“I don’t know, she was like this the mont i saw her.”
“She was already in a poor health when she ca here this morning... Wait, maybe the sudden prophecy had sothing on her. You should call the new priestess who is still in the palace, Your highness.”
“What prophecy?” I asked Brayden as i have no idea about what the doctor is saying.
But before Brayden could say sothing, Duke Alexander ca in with a fierce gaze and letting out her chilly cold aura.
“What did you do to my daughter again, Your Majesty, The crown prince?”
But the mont his eyes fall on the unconscious Eleanora, He froze and his fierce gaze was full of fear.
“Elee!” He yelled as he rush to the bed and His blue eyes trembled with anxiety.
I always thought the duke was a rciless cold person, who didn’t have any emotions.
But seeing him like this, i was surprised.
“What’s the matter, Ele? What’s wrong with you?”
“.....”
“What was so shocking to you? What is it that has distressed you so much as to collapse? Huh? Tell your father..”
“......”
“Please tell anything. I’m so frustrated as you keep your mouth shut.”
“......”
“Are you upset because I ca late? I’m sorry. If I had known this earlier, I would never have left you alone.”
Although he talked in a very friendly tone, I could see the anxiety and fear in his eyes and tone well.
After a mont, when she blinked slowly and tilted her head, there was so liveliness in his face.
He began to say with a subdued voice, “Can’t you co to your senses?”
“...”
“Are you going to live absent-mindedly like this? leaving your father all alone too?”
Eleanora was still in a daze, didn’t replied anything and the duke clenched his fist as he looked at with a hostile eyes that was like blaming for what happened to her.
What’s wrong with this father and daughter pair?
One looks at like am gonna kill her and another looks at like he is going to kill .
“Elee!”
“...”
He began to shout with a cracked voice.
His hardened face was contorted, and his repressed voice was growing bigger.
Maybe she didn’t want to hear his cranky voice that broke the peace of her mind, she covered her ears with both hands.
The duke finally ran out of patience as he grabbed her arms tightly. Pulling away her hands from her ears, he lanted,
“I was wrong! As I was worried that you might hate for not being able to save your mother, I distanced myself from you. As a result, you have beco a weak child now.”
“...”
“How long are you gonna escape by passing out and crying all night? How are you going to change your life since you are weak like this? How can you hold a sword anymore with such a weak spirit? How can you succeed the family with this weak ntal power!”
I really couldn’t understand the dukes words anymore. What the hell is he saying? succeed the family?
“Eleanora Dalton!”
Even my own heart skipped a beat by his severe rebuke imbued with sadness, but Eleanora still didn’t moved.
Seeing this, the duke hugged her tiny body tightly and i could see a faint tear drop in the corner of his eyes.
Then suddenly another person knocked on the door.
