Kael's POV
I came to Roman's room without waiting even a moment after I informed him. I wanted to be by her side.
I was used to being in my own room only, but in her state, I didn't find it right to move her and disturb her sleep.
When she was awake, she couldn't let me be close or even comfort her. And the weight of regret was so heavy on me that I had no face to even offer her comfort. All I could do was be with her when she was not awake. I knew well what my presence caused her, my presence by her side itself was enough to comfort her.
I lay in the bed, my movements careful. Turning on my side, I looked at her. She looked utterly exhausted, pale and distressed even in her deep sleep.
Her blood soaked clothes were changed to fresh ones, and her face had been cleaned as it had Rafe's blood smeared to it.
