" her fever didn"t subside for almost an hour now " the doctor spoke to the Lord who was sitting beside the unconscious girl holding her body close to him he could feel the heat of her face was very red due to the high fever nothing worked to reduce her fever" leave " the lord ordered and all the doctors in the room left
placing his forehead on hers he saw her eyes fluttering trying to open them the lord pulled back a little to let at her she smiled slightly at him as if she was telling him that she was alright
she reached her hand touching his face her hand was so soft against his skin he leaned to her touch, Althea watched him as he brought her hand to his lips kissing her palm he kissed it once twice as if he was trying to memorize everything about her
" Kaname " Althea spoke her voice was weak
" yes " he replied gently as he changed the wet clothes on her forehead replacing it with another one
" I want you to promise me something," Althea said as she looked into his eyes and he somehow felt like he knew what she was about to say
" I want you to take care of my mother if something happened... " the lord cut her off by kissing her lips gently silencing her he didn"t want to hear what she was about to say he refused to believe what is happening he can"t imagine her leaving his side
she closed her eyes surveying the feeling of his lips on hers a drop of tears escaped from her eyes and fall on the pillow under her head as he kissed her pa.s.sionately
" don"t say these words again you will live and take care of her do you understand Althea you are not allowed to leave me " he whispered against her lips wiping her tears
she nodded her head slowly as more tears falling from her eyes
