Chapter 104: Awakened

Astrid's POV

'W-what happened to me?' I thought to myself as my heavy lids fluttered open. My head feels quite heavy as if I were hit by a ton of bricks.

Still, I fought my eyes open. I want to know where I am. I want to know what happened and if I was saved and returned to a safe place.

The last thing I remembered was my hands getting tied with my feet hanging above the ground. The next thing was falling to the ground, feeling a lot of pain, and becoming unconscious because of it. Am I still in danger?

"Astrid? Astrid, can you hear me?" Drystan's familiar voice entered my ears as I fought to wake up.

"Drystan?" I muttered as I finally focused my gaze on him.

"I'm right here," he said softly as he took my hand in his. "How are you feeling?" His brows creased with worry as he leaned over me.

Relief washed over me as soon as I saw his face. I blinked a few times, my eyes adjusting to the light. That's when I noticed another figure standing beside Drystan - Nova, who also looks equally concerned "Nova," I breathed out, a small smile tugging at the corners of my lips.

"We were so worried about you," Nova said, her voice laced with relief. She reached out and squeezed my other hand.

Tears welled up in my eyes as I stared back and forth at Drystan and Nova, making sure that this wasn't just a good dream.

I was so afraid. I thought I would never see them again. I was so frightened that I thought I was going to die after I fell from that height. I didn't know how I even managed to survive that high fall.

"H-How long I've been sleeping?" I forced out my voice as my fears threatened to choke me.
