Chapter 18

MIRANA

I woke up from my sleep and found my forehead full of sweat. I'm just dreaming. A nightmare that almost made my child and I killed.

"I will never forgive you," I said, unmoved by the tears in my eyes.

"I don't want to be your wife," I said as I wipe my tears away using the back of my hand. I took a deep breath and got up and walked to Zeke's sleeping quarters. He awoke from sleep and looked at me.

"My, why are you not sleeping?"

"I'm having a bad dream baby."

"A nightmare?"

"Yes," I smiled at him and sat down on his bed and brushed his soft hair.

"Monsters?"

"Hmmm," I nodded at him.

"You should pray, My," he said, makes me smile.

"I always pray. Can I stay with you baby?" I asked and he smiled very warmly.

"Okay my, I wuv you. Let's sleep already," he said and pulled his blanket and gave me a kiss.

"I love you too, goodnight," I said and hugged him until I didn't even know I was asleep.
