The Bones of The Rabbit

Chapter 26

Donna roamed the castle with Angie in hand, then saw you roaming the halls. Wait. You were roaming the halls? The doctor said you wouldn't be able to leave the bed until November, and here you were roaming the halls. She ran after you, worried. The library doors opened wide, Daniela helping you. "Wait! Why is (Y/N) out of bed?" She spoke through Angie, then heard you give a small growl. "Don't talk about me like I'm not here! I'm looking for Alci!" You snapped, catching Donna off guard. She helped open the library door, admiring your resilience.

She almost killed you and yet, you still, after all this time, you still want to see her?

Donna scanned the library. Lucky enough, Lady Dimitrescu was there. She had just finished talking to her therapist and was surprised to see you out of bed. "There's no use running, Alcina. You must pay the price." She spoke through Angie, the puppet giving a laugh. "One kiss for your crimes of not seeing (Y/N), per month. It's either that, or be forced to cuddle and watch cheesy romcoms." Angie called out.

What a strange way to pay for nearly killing your partner.

Donna watched as you practically cornered Lady Dimitrescu, bringing a smile to her lips. "You must choose Miss Dimitrescu, give the kisses to your partner or suffer from the romcoms. What will it be, Miss Dimitrescu?" Angie called out. It took some hesitation from Lady Dimitrescu, but as she bent down to kiss you on the forehead, Donna watched as you grabbed her by the forearms and pulled her to your level for kisses. You were admitted into the infirmary in June, a total of 5 kisses was required.

Donna placed a hand on Cassandra's shoulder, stopping her from pulling you away. "Let her spend some time with Alcina. She hadn't seen her for months." Angie whispered.

Alcina is going to have to make up for lost time. Perhaps I should order takeout.
