Chapter 180 Fading Away
“Rosalie? Rosalie!” Ethan calling my name brought me back around. I was in his arms. He covered me with something, and it was then that I realized I had shifted back into my human form.
I didn’t even have the strength to keep my wolf any more.
His chest was warm and his scent… soothed me even though it was mixed with dirt and blood.
‘Your Majesty! Cerina cried in mindlink, ‘Can you hear me? Please say something!
I can hear you,’ I managed to respond to Cerina but my eyes were still on Ethan. How’s the battle going?’
“General Vandough brought reinforcements, and Soren is leading the vanguard.’
The citizens?
‘Luckily, minimum casualty.”
I let out a breath but I didn’t know how much longer I’d be able to hold on to my consciousness as I felt my life force fading away.
“Rosalie!” Ethan’s tone wasn’t as leveled as usual. It sounded to me that he was trying to control his emotions. That made me wonder… if I die, would he cry for me?
I tried to focus my gaze on him as he said, “Rosalie, let me take over!” As if he wasn’t certain I would give him command, he added quickly, “Trust me!”
The only move I could make with the strength I had left was to blink my eye lids twice, and I mindlinked Cerina, Alpha Ethan will be in charge…’
Then darkness took over me.
When I woke up again, my head was heavy and it took me a while to get used to the light.
“What can I get you, Your Majesty?” It was Seraphine’s voice.
“Wa…water, please.” I managed.
She poured me some water and shouted to someone else in the room, “Tell everyone that Her Majesty is awake,” she said. I heard the scuffle of footsteps behind me but didn’t turn my head to see who it was or where they were going.
After taking a sip of the cold liquid, I put down the cup, looked around, and realized that I was back in my room in the palace.
I’ll get some food for you!”
I nodded and watched her run off.
I remembered our battle and my giant wolf. Then Soren was able to get there in time and Ethan took over command,
Now that we were back in the palace, I assumed everyone was probably okay for now and we had some quiet time to prepare for their next attack
Not long after Seraphine left the room, I heard steady and powerful footsteps approaching my room.
Ut was Ethan.
He had stopped walking toward me now, and was just standing in the distance, observing me.
