Chapter １１

POV: Daina

It seemed like a century had passed.

I heard my name through the mental fog.

Prince Stephan Buther's visage appeared as I opened my eyes.

His normally bland look became worried.

 I closed my eyes and gave in to the darkness.

I woke up and saw just white.

"Daina!"

I saw Dason's amazement.

Not dead.

"Prince Buter..."

looking around, I mumbled.

Hospital ward.

My roommate was Dason.

I thought Stephan Buther rescued me. He disappeared. Dason missed what I said and believed I wasn't awake.

"I'm pleased to see you awake.nearly It's dawn.I have to go back to my dorm room.I'll see you after training,"

Dason placed sunflowers in a vase beside the window.

Mrs. Elizabeth Stephan Buther approached the ward in casual clothing.

Two maids followed.

I was so astonished I couldn't sit up.

My connection with Stephan Buther was private, so I couldn't expose Elizabeth's identity.

Elizabeth hurried to my side and said, "Don't get up. You'll worsen your wounds."

She was anxious about me.

Despite doing what Stephan Buther requested, I realized she was a good mother.

She went far to visit me despite being ill.

Dason glanced at Elizabeth confusedly; he didn't know her.

I said, "That's my friend's mom." Dason hugged Elizabeth.

Hello, ma'am.

Elizabeth glanced at me curiously, so I said, "This is Dason, a special training trainee and my buddy."

"Oh,"

Elizabeth carefully inspected Dason.

The elder woman's response concerned him, but he didn't inquire.

Elizabeth's appearance spooked the ward.

One of Elizabeth's maids grabbed Dason's knife and fruit before he could cut me any.

Elizabeth answered, "Let them do it."

She requested for flowers to fill the ward.

Dason's sunflowers were lost amid the room's abundance of flowers.

Dason brought me soup after the day's training.

Elizabeth had me eat a healthy supper, so I was satisfied.

Hospitalized for a week.

Elizabeth chaperoned so I wasn't alone with Dason.

Her ladies would watch me whenever she want a break.

Elizabeth was just wary about Dason.

Since I was well-cared for, I convinced Dason to sleep at the hostel.

I'd feel terrible and concerned if he couldn't workout due to lack of sleep

Stephan Buther's POV:

On the training field, yells repeated.

I became angry while watching trainees practice.

I was frequently absent-minded.

I got bored and left.

"

"Half the time.Some evenings he returned late, and occasionally he didn't return at all."

"Dason's disobedience surprised me!" I'll inquire afterwards.

Dason's name made me halt.

Dason has always liked Daina.

Dason previously treated Daina's leg injury.

Why wasn't he going back to the dorm? My mum later visited me.

She visited Daina, I knew.

I recommended my sick mother to return early, and she agreed.

She wasn't happy after the visit.

"Brat!"

"When she spotted me, she snapped.

"Daina will be released from the hospital tomorrow. You haven't seen her once. What's wrong with you? You and Daina fighting? "

I tried to reassure her, "Don't worry too much. Take care of your health."

Why would Dason visit her if nothing was wrong? He'll scoffeel your mate soon at this pace. Fearful? "

Dason? Where? His name kept coming up today.

"Dason visited Daina in the hospital?

"What?!" I asked.

"Yes.And it appears he's been coming there every evening after his training to care for Daina.Unlike you, he manages to do both! Can't you see your hospitalized partner? "My mom yelled.

Dason wasn't going to his dorm at night since he was taking care of my pal.

A man and a woman have been spending almost every night together.

What would they do alone? Will they fall in love? I didn't continue thinking .

My mother said, "Anyway, take Daina up from the hospital tomorrow when she's charged. If you can't do that, don't call me your mother anymore."

She rushed out after stating that, so I couldn't challenge her threat.

I scratched my head and sighed.

I couldn't sleep when night fell.

I just thought of Daina and Dason.

Her sparkling eyes fluttered like they contained a narcotic.Her contours were exquisite.

She was stunning.

She's irresistible to men.They'd die for sex with her.

So I never touched her.

After I fell asleep, I had a nightmare where Dason did horrible things to Daina.

I intended to give that jerk a lesson, but Daina informed me she loved Dason.

I was sweating as I woke from the nightmare.

I panted and wiped perspiration.Daina wouldn't do it.

Next morning, I drove to the hospital.

I sped along the vacant road.

I reached the hospital without stopping.

The chilly wind swept through the vehicle windows and made me pause.

I halted at the hospital's gate, unsure why I was there.

  Should I tie up Daina? Crowded streets.

I noticed the lady I came to pick up at the hospital entrance with Dason.

Dason had one hand on Daina's arm and the other around her waist.

"Daina!"

My voice was so harsh as I spoke the word that I was surprised.

Two individuals getting in the vehicle looked at me.

Daina's eyes widened, then she grinned.

Stephan Buther's pov

I exited the vehicle, closed the door, and walked over.

I grabbed Daina's suitcase from Dason, shocAlpha them.

"Go"

Dason didn't want to let go.

""I can manage it, Mr. Stephan Buther. You don't need to.

He talked with a pleasant voice and a nice grin, like if Daina were his partner.

I gave him a chilly look.

"You should attend training ASAP. .

Your dorm head should speak to you about being out late.

Daina shook her head at Dason after hearing me.

"Dason, go to training immediately. I'll handle Mr. Stephan Buther."

"Okay, Daina. Rest up. See you later,"

Daina and I got in my vehicle after Dason departed.

Nobody spoke up.

Even the wind outside sounded too loud in the car's eerie stillness.

"Thanks, Mr. Stephan Buther."

Daina's gentle voice made my heart jump a beat when I thought the unsettling stillness would endure until we arrived.
