Sacred Maiden (Book one of The Sacred Love Series)

Book Thirty Eight

Bloom

   I laid on my side, watching Alis sleep in so much pain, he took my pain and I knew it. He let out soft whimpers as tears ran down his eyes even though he was asleep. I wiped his tears off every time, crying along with him. One hand clasped against mine tightly, squeezing it and causing me pain but I didn't mind. His other hand wrapped around my waist was strangling it but I still didn't care. His phones was ringing because it was eight in the morning and he needed to be at work but he couldn't wake up as he bore my pain.

   'Bloom,' I bent my head back to look at who called me. It was no other than Dark; he looks different, taller. 'Good morning?' I nodded. 'He's still unconscious?'

   'As you can see, isn't he suppose to be some kind of powerful person?' I asked calmly, averting my eyes back to Alis.

   'This is the first time he is feeling pains, he had never had a cause to feel pain this intense, nothing hurts him deeply. That's why he is like this, he will be fine.'

   'But he's hurting, I was thinking I could help stop it?'

   'How do you intend to do that?' He asked smirkingly, yes, he smirks.

   'I was thinking I could use my healing light, it might not have worked on me but it can work on him, right?' I asked hopefully.

   'Well, you'll never know until you try,' I looked down at Alis again and rest my hand on the crown of his head. 'You will pass out for hours, you know that, right?'

   'Mm hm,' I hummed, shutting my eyes to concentrate. The surface of my skin tingled with as I felt sparks at the tip of my fingers and electricity curling around my toes. my energy ran out of me before I passed out.

   'Morning, sunshine!!!'

   'Aaaaaah!' I screamed, falling off the bed in a thud, heart attack! I held my chest, breathing heavily as I watched Kristal and my sisters laugh their ass out. 'What sort of conspiracy is this!'

   'Boredom conspiracy,' Leila said with a wink.

   'Alis! Alis! There are three mad women in our room! Help!' I shouted frantically, their smirks were terrifying me.

   'Your darling husband has gone out, you are all alone,' Kristal exaggerated with a mischievous smirk. I gulped and shifted back on the floor.

   'What do you girls want from me?'

   'Bloom, what happened to your hair? It's shorter?' Bernice finally took to notice.

   'Alis cut it off,'

   'Why?' Kristal asked with a wryly smirk.

   'He likes it this way,' I lied, giving Bernice and Leila a knowing look. They nodded with understanding and smirked again.

   'Gets ready, pumpkin! We're giving you a makeover!' Oh boy.

   The limo parked at an occasion, it looked like Alisdair was launching a building or something. A red carpet laid forward to the platform where he stood, separating the rows of chairs from each other as Alis lazily gave a speech. The press were making good use of their time, taking pictures and waiting to be the first to get any wrong move. Some of them turned to our car, wondering who the fuck was interrupting Alisdair. I inhaled and smiled at Leila nervously, I know no one ever remembers it but every year, I wish they would and surprise me.
