Chapter 77 : A new day.

The sun was already up when Day woke up from a deep sleep. His body was heavy, sore, and numb in places; he struggled to grab the blanket from under his hands. His eyes didn't open, despite all his will to do so. No light was present in front of his closed eyelids. But it wasn't real darkness; something was preventing him from seeing. Lifting his aching arm painfully, he put his fingers on the thick blindfold over his eyes and lowered it. "It's still dark," he thought at first, before noticing the light in front of him. But his vision was so clouded that he couldn't make out anything in front of him. So the blond fumbled around to find only the void next to him. Nyx was not there; the sheets were cold.

"Day-sama!"

The sudden voice made him jump violently, and the omega panicked, trying to move back into his bed when his hand fell into the air. He narrowly fell off the bed when his shoulders were caught.
