CHAPTER 29

It was an hour after I had been diagnosed with the ‘Two Faced Poison’, when the Second Prince came storming into the room, with a royal physician.

It was not long after that, that the royal physician checked my pulse to say that the ‘Two Faced Poison’ was now in second stage.

By this time, it was harder for me to stay awake, my body went through hot flushes and then cold flushes. I had started to loss my hearing, to hear blurring sounds, as the poison reached my ears. My eyesight had slowly gone blurrier and blurrier, making my eyes red and tears go down my cheeks. The pain was insufferable, but I tried not to scream…

I let out gasps and groans, unable to hold them back. I wanted to clench my hands, but I didn’t have to strength to make my fingers even touch the insides of my palms. I bit my lip, trying to draw out some of the pain, so my lips started to go red and even start to bleed not long after. I, at first, was only slightly trembling, but as the time moved on…I was trembling so much that I a.s.sumed I saw and heard Talon start to cry.



 

Even though I started to use my cultivation to try and rid of the poison, as soon as I knew I was poisoned, it’s not as easy as one thinks. I would forget about forging the poison out completely, leaving the poison to run rapid through my body a decent amount of time before I remembered again. The pain did not help me focus at all…It seemed almost unbearable at most times, but I would get moments when I feel like I can handle it…Before another wave of pain washes over me.

The last thing that doesn’t help me force the poison out, was that I would drift into unconsciousness unwillingly, and lose a minimum of five to ten minutes, before I would wake up again to the pain!

 

“I’m so sorry…So sorry!” Talon’s voice wasn’t heard through my ears, but I knew he was trying to console me in some way. Seeing him like this really teared at my heart, he really was someone that had a heart of a lion, but a family of white lotus’s. I felt like the both of us were born in the wrong family. That we might have been better in a poorer and smaller commoner kind of family. Seeing a small figure close to Talon, I added Samuel into my equation of wrong people in wrong families. Samuel was somebody else that I preferred near me, he wasn’t a schemer and was cute. If everyone could be like Talon and Samuel, life would be…So much easier…

He can come too! We’ll…We’ll go to the countryside and fish…Even though I hate to fish…But…I feel like fis.h.i.+ng…

When my blurry eyes turned to my other side, someone was there too. I wasn’t sure who it was, they had come in about two or three hours ago now, and I knew they were different because of the blurry clothes that they were wearing. I know people had said things when they had arrived, but I didn’t know what those words were. Instead of Talon, who gript my hand very hard and mumbled, this other person seemed calmer. They also held my shaking hand and held it very gently. I was also sure that they were staring at me…

At the feet of my bed, my ‘stupid grandfather’ had calmed down, but was just standing there. What I couldn’t see was his eyes were red and he had clenched hands, making his knuckles going white. To others, they weren’t sure if he was going to cry or go into another fit of rage…Perhaps if I had seen this, I wouldn’t think him out to be like the cold, greedy b.a.s.t.a.r.d I thought he was at the beginning…

 

After another bout of dizziness and blankness overwhelming me, I struggled through the pain that woke me and wondered who the new person was that had just walked in.

That person had rushed in here and seemed to look at me for a moment.

I wonder if it’s her…

“I would like to have a short moment with my daughter…Alone. Just in case…Just” Celeste’s voice stammered. She looked closely at everyone, unsure how to say these words, but she knew she had to say them!

But n.o.body moved. As the blurry figure with a feminine murmured voice entered my ears again, I struggled to use my cultivation for a short moment to see if this figure was that woman!

“Please, let me see her alone, one last time! She is a beloved daughter, I must speak with her!” Celeste’s loud voice seemed scared.

Has this worthless girl said anything? Why are they so quiet!? Dammit, just get out of my way!
