Chapter 14: Nightmares and heart attacks

-Flashback-

My maid had just finished helping me put on my dress for dinner father informed my mother and I to dress nice for our royal visitor from the other side of Germany.  I stared into the mirror my waist was small the corset was tight around my body. Perfect, just what royalty likes it I thought to myself for a split second.  The tower bell rang noon I soon made my way towards the stairs to find mother. Until I stopped hearing my father's voice.

"Victoria"

"Coming father" I replied entering his study. He smiled seeing me as soon as I entered; "let me introduce you to our visitor"  

The man stood up appearing suddenly from my one of my father's royal chairs that were in front of his desk. "You remember lord strify don't you?"  My father asked giving me a warn look and slightly hash tone of voice. Of course we were royal it was important that we knew the other's well the last time I forgot a royals name I was 9 and I still had scars from that incident. I gulped nervous "yes, father I do remember meeting lord strify at the ball last mouth" they smiled and nodded my father soon cleared his throat. I forgot to bow. I quickly bowed suddenly remembering my manners like mother tough me.

Lord strify took a step toward me as I rose, "you're more beautiful than that night at the ball princess Victoria" he spoke calmly taking my hand and osculating it with the soft touch of his lips. "And as you are handsome" I spoke almost in a whisper taken a back.

You may be asking yourself who is lord strify? Lord strify is a wealthy man no older than twenty-six years of age well at least that's the age he looks to be, like the rest of us he can't age at this point. He dressed like the gentleman he was, pale skinned, had long blonde hair down to his shoulders which was supposed to be pulled back in a ponytail but he was a royal and royals can make their own rules and lastly he had piercing blue eyes that would change to be olive green.

After dinner I took a walk out to the large garden with my mother while my father and his guest attended to important business. "Mother the roses are growing well this year" I watched as they bloomed then waited to pick one. The sun was out, birds chirped and the sky was ocean blue for once I smiled looking down at my rose inhaling its scent becoming lost in thought of when I would finally be able to free of this place.

 "VICTORIA" my mother shouted taking me out my thoughts I was now looking to my side along with the stinging pain on my right cheek I looked up at my mother in confusion not saying a word nor weeping. "What have i have told you about dazing out like that?" she gazed at me angrily than releasing a stressful sign. "Your piano lesson will begin shortly, come along your master is waiting" she walked away and I followed as told not saying a word.

Knives p.o.v

My eyes shot open I quickly sat up in my bed my heart was pounding against my chest a mile per minute did that nightmare had something to do with this? attempting to breathe coughing nonstop a horrible weight appeared on my chest along with the feeling of my throat burning making it harder to breathe.

it was so really for a moment i thought i had lived that moment in my life sometime ago. I whimpered in pain but not even a sound escaped my lips; mentally panicking I reached for my phone on the night stand next to my bed quickly dialing jacks number.

"Hello" he sounded exhausted I tried to speak but again I didn't make a sound. After a moment of silence he spoke again this time sounding concerned. "Knives what's wrong" I cleared my throat and attempted to speak again; "j-jack" was the only thing I can make out in a gently before falling off my bed, dropping my phone on the floor my vision burred my soundings darken and faded away.

Jack's p.o.v

I heard a loud thump from the other end of the line, at first I thought knives was just hyper again and playing tricks on me at about 3 in the morning. "KNIVES" I shouted into the phone there was nothing but silence I grew concerned and rushed to her apartment. Once there I found her front door locked that wasn't going to stop me I kicked open the door breaking the lock and ran up to her room, finding her motionless and not breathing I carried her to my car and to the nearest hospital.

-Few hours later-

The doctors still didn't inform me of was going on I just sat in the waiting room until I heard any news. "Jack strify" a woman spoke holding a chip-bored looking around, I rose my sit and walked toward her "yes?" she stared at me for a moment then began to speak. "Your wife is now breathing on her own she woke in the middle of a heart attack but in a few more hours she should be fine I'll take you to her room".

She led me to her room and explained that she would come back to cheek on her.  My old heart shattered see her in the state that she was. I was happy she was out of harm's way now soon I can take back home. Sitting down in a chair and taking her hand not letting go I leaned in closer to her ear and whispered "I love you and I'll never let you go".

 

I fell asleep resting my eyes but smiled waking up hearing her voice. "Hi jack" rubbing my open I relied "hi" with a yawn. The sun was out now the doctor discharged knives and I drove her home. "I'll be downstairs if you need me" I spoke walking to the living room while she went up to her room "jack" I turned my head "yes?" I asked. "Come keep me company..I-I don't want to be alone" I chuckled and went upstairs with her, stroking her hair as she slept I whispered again

 "I'll  never let you go".
