Going back to the castle Zed decided to see Pharian and how he was doing.

"My lord" Beatrice bowed slightly then turned to Pharian who was eating food from her hands.

"Your hands don't work now?" Zed asked.

"I seem to prefer it this way but if it upsets you I'll change it before you go all red on me" Pharian mocked smiling while Zed glared at him.

"It seems you are well enough to continue your duties" Zed said and Beatrice frowned.

"He is still unwell I won't let him do anything till he recovered" She said sternly.

"What a thoughtful wife I have" Pharian smiled and Beatrice glared at him. She was still angry at him and the only reason she wasn't hitting him now was because he was recovering.

"Sometimes I wonder why I didn't marry Prince Eason" Beatrice said and Pharian's eyes narrowed while Zed stiffled a laughter.

"Don't like to be on the receiving end?" Zed taunted before dissapearing to leave the two of them alone.

"Your brother doesn't seem to care much for you" Beatrice said her mind after Zed had gone.

"He does he just doesn't make it seem like it" Pharian gave a small smile he had found out the reason for Zed's outburst which he understood.

"You should stop getting hurt so much" she frowned at him.

"If I don't I would never know that you could be a loving wife" Pharian smiled tipping her chin up and she slapped his hand and glared at him.

"I believe you are better and can eat by yourself" she dropped the plate beside him on the bed before leaving the room.

"Beatrice!" Pharian cried out in pain and she immediately ran back into the room he was coughing and she rushed over to his side.

"W...what's wrong?" She asked panicking with a worried expression when Pharian suddenly stopped coughing.

"I knew you loved me" he smiled broadly and her hands itched to kill him.

....

Zed appeared in Skye's room with her food she was sitting at the edge of the bed and he walked over to her.

"Skye" he called sitting beside her and she turned to look at him.

"How are you feeling?" He asked.

"Empty" she replied and his jaw clenched.

"It'll be fine" he kissed her forehead.

"How is Pharian?" She asked.

"Better" his answer was short he didn't want her talking about anybody except them.

"And Audrey?" She asked making him frown.

"Okay for now" he murmured the last two words under his breath that she couldn't hear.

"And you?" She turned to face him fully and he smiled a little.

"I am calm" he said making her smile and his eyes slightly dilated finally turning amber and to his surprise she leaned in to kiss him.

Zed placed his hand on her cheek and smiled.

"You look better than yesterday" he commented.

"Yes I've realized that nothing can be done and what has happened has happened" she said and he nodded.

"Bathe?" He asked.

"I already have" she replied and began to eat the food he brought sitting up.

Her blanket dropped a little and his eyes caught sight of her legs and he immediately looked up to face her.

"There was a woman who was in the room before you came" Skye said and Zed's eyes hardened.

"Did she say her name?" Zed asked.

"No she said she only came to check how I was doing?" Skye replied.

It could only be one person, the veiled woman.

Gwen would never dare to show her face again and Audrey was locked up also Skye would have known if it was her.

"I was wondering if I could step outside to take a walk" She said without looking at his eyes.

"Okay I will come with" he replied.

"Won't you be busy?" She asked.

"I can still take a walk" he said and she nodded as she stood up he went over to her trunk looking for one of the most thoroughly covered clothes.

She gave him a confused look.

"It's a little cold outside" he said and she nodded wearing the dress he gave her they stepped outside her room to walk as she had wanted.
