Venom’s POV
I was back from work when I heard that Maya was unwell again, the constant issue was driving me crazy already.
Elora came through and she was preparing something in the kitchen already. I was at the bed in which Maya laid. “How are you doing?” I asked her. She looked quite pale and weak.
“I’m fine. I just can’t move. That’s all.” She tried to play it off but I knew something was far worse going on with her. At least, so it seemed.
We waited a bit for Elora to come through and when she didn’t, I went to go meet her in the kitchen.
“How are things going?”
She glanced at me, “I’ll be done with very soon.” She knew what I needed already.
“What can I help you with? I’ll be glad to be of help. ” I offered.
” Just be patient. That’s all, I guess.” She was pretty calm and indifferent to my problem of worrying.
I took a break from things and went outside to get fresh air. It was the only thing I could think of at the time that would calm me down.
The garden was empty, everyone had gone in, including the workers. The gods had been lenient with everything I engaged myself in ever since I was little, but the constant issues I had over Maya was tiring me out.
“Please help.” I looked to the sky and prayed that help would come.
I went back in and Elora was administering what she had made already to Maya.
I got closer to check on what was going on and she was being fed of the drink.
“Are you feeling any different?” I inquired.
She nodded while Elora continued to feed her something out of a bowl. I wish out again and asked everyone to excuse them. I didn’t want the place congested.
I went to my office and stayed in there for a bit waiting to be called up that something had changed with the body of Maya, but no one came.
I went in to check again and she was finally healing. Like magic, she had full control of her arms.
“Wow!” I exclaimed. The two women did the same. Apparently, they didn’t realize I was the room and I had startled them.
I laughed at the incident that had just occurred. “I’m really sorry. Don’t be offended.” I apologized to them.
“You’re really stealthy, young man?” Elora laughed. It was probably the first time that she had done that since we left her pack.
I was still on the business of getting revenge for her after what had happened with her son. I spoke with the council and it was acknowledged already, we were going to besiege them.
That would be after Maya’s hell’s pit so they wouldn’t have any manipulation over her anymore.
“How are you doing, Maya?” I went to the bed and rubbed on her head.
She shifted slightly and I was able to hold her better, “I’m getting well. I’m just really frustrated at how much I worry you every time.”
“It’s fine. You don’t worry me, I just want you to be completely well and that would be everyone’s happiness.” I told her.
Elora finished up and stood to leave, “she should be fine by morning.”
“Thank you so much. I really appreciate you.” I thanked her.
“It’s fine. There’s no problem.”
I looked at her and realized that she was still wearing the same thing from when we ran out of her house to escape the ambush.
“Would you like to go out to get more clothes? I’ll be more than happy to help.” I offered her.
“Yes, no problem. Let me know when it’s time to leave.” She said before leaving the room.
“She’s godsent.” I heard Maya say.
“She’s really amazing and I hope she can do her best to cure you permanently. That’s the prayer, ” I said.
“Everything will be fine.” She told me.
She gestured at her bed and I immediately understood her. I took off the clothes I still had on from when I went out to work till when I got back.
As soon as I was done, I climbed onto the bed and laid beside her. It wasn’t so easy to get her to shift and adjust due to her current position, but I managed and we laid there in each other’s arms.
” I love you.” I whispered in her ear.
She smiled, “I love you too.”
We slept in that position till it was morning, by the time we woke up, she was back to normal and her body was agile.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Someone knocked on our door and I had to go there. It was my father that was by the door.
“Good morning, sir.” I bowed my head in respect.
“How’s your mate?” He inquired.
“She’s doing well, she’s back to normal.”
“Ohh, that’s good. Hope she will be well enough to get in her battle to fight fit.”
“I hope so too, dad.” I told him.
I was unsure of how she felt and I had been thinking of ways we could get her out of fighting in hell’s pit.
But for the fact that Alpha Maximum was now against me, it didn’t feel like there was so much I could do again with both influence amd power.
I went back in and Maya was on her feet already. She was agile and preparing for early morning exercises.
“How do you feel, Maya?”
“I’m doing okay. See me, I’m feet.” She gestured by jumping on her feet and performing a split which I always found impressive of her whenever she did it.
Apart from being powerful, she had acrobatic prowess. It was no surprise that she had managed to survive well enough to the point she was going to engage in her last battle for freedom.
I went to her and hugged her. “I pray I never lose you, it kills me to even imagine it. Stay forever.”
