His Fall From Grace

Chapter Twenty Nine

Mia King’s POV

I hate this ,I hate being questioned and I hate that I’ve lost my memory of the last three years.

I hate that I didn't attend my mother’s funeral and I absolutely hate the looks of regret in my dad’s eye.

I haven’t even taken time to process the fact that I’m engaged. Even though when I glanced at the man whom I’m engaged to ,I feel as if there is something I should remember and the more I thought about it the more there was a banging sensation in my head.

The worst part of being in this hospital ,having the doctors and nurses treating me for an injury that I have no idea how I sustained ,all I know is that they found me passed out on the floor .For God sakes my dad hasn’t even mentioned how my mom-

“Ahem, Ahem” A voice sound ,startling me a bit, turning my head where the sound came from so fast I almost gave myself whiplash.

“Hey, hey ,I didn’t mean to startle you, take it easy” Niklaus said, approaching me and taking a seat on the chair next to the bed.

“Uhm hi” I greeted shyly, looking down trying to hide the red tint that had painted my cheeks ,never have I ever been in the presence of such a greek God.

“Hi Mia, how are you?” He questioned placing his coarse hand on my thigh causing my nerves to sky rocket.

“Well ah-uhm i-um i-” 

“You don’t have to feel scared Mia ,take your time ,I’ll wait” Niklaus spoke in his gruff voice ,moving his hand from my thigh to my chin as he slowly lifted my face to look at him.

“I’m fine, it’s just my head” I said looking into his dark eyes ,his eyes seemed to be hiding a deep dark tale.

 “That's good the doctor said you’ll be able to go home tomorrow” He informed me causing me to smile.

“Really, I can’t wait to finally sleep on my own bed” I grinned .

"You mean our bed"

"O-oh our bed" i quipped slightly unsure and he  nodded in return. Of course we have a bed mia. He's my fiance.

“I'm sorry it's fine I know you don't remember to you don't have to” He assured with a small smile but when I looked in his eyes ,I could tell he was straining

"No thing's should go back as it were," I spoke with every fiber of my being screaming no but I can’t hurt him ,He’s my Fiance.

 “What's it like,our relationship, did my parents approve or did we just go for it” I asked him, eager to at least hear how we happened to see if it would help jog my memory.

“We're doing great together, still getting to know each other and your parents approve of us” He said curtly. 

"That sounds good,have you ever met skylar she's my best friend and I just feel like I've lost her but i don't know they wouldn't talk to me here" I inquired really wanting to know where Skylar is ,our families are close after all. 

“Skylar,the only thing you told me about her is that she betrayed you then ran off to Russia” He told me and I felt as if my spirit had been crushed, I couldn't  believe it ,the skylar I knew would never but people change.

“O-okay” I frowned

“You-” The ringing of a phone interrupted Niklaus and he excused himself.

I couldn't help but think about Skylar ,she was my best friend.

Sitting on the bed nothing could stop my thoughts from drifting into a dark pit.
