The Making At The Heart Of The World✨

~PERVIOUSLY on Shadow and Bone~

You face her ceres her hair softly until she falls asleep. All you can think of is 'what going to happen to you, are both of you not gonna see Mal again?', question after question crashing into your mind and with that last wave of exhaustion you fall asleep after Alina.

'It was dark, it was.. night,
Am i a captured? I can't move my hands, someone was holding my hands behind my back, i can't use my power.
From the distance i can hear someone yelled, cried and begged for my release.

"Please, take me i'm begging you!" did he cried for me?, his voice is distant yet familiar, and then a scream,

As i felt a piercing knife through my ribs, air knock from my lungs, i can't breath, i can't feel anything, my knees buckled.

The last thing i heard was someone screaming my name. Should i call back? I can't even utter a single word, I didn't even know who that man was. And then it was dark once again.'

You can feel yourself jolted awake with a shallow breath, it's been weeks since you having that dream you always wake up clutching your side, where the stab in your 'dream' take its place, you look around the room, it seems that you're still at Alina's suite, it's still dark out and Alina didn't seem to feel your trembling post dream experience,

after waking up from that said 'dream', you can't seem to bring yourself back to sleep, so instead you decided to make your way back into your chamber.
creeping away on the same hallway of the little palace, it was oddly quiet and weird for someone not guarding every corners of the palace, you snuck back inside your grand room making sure leave no sound, you walk slowly to the bed touching every decor you pass, when you arrive on the bed you plop down facing the high ceiling, you take a deep sigh, you swear you just closed your eyes for a second,

'There it is again, that voice, but it was different this time, no sign of distressed lingering in his voice, no pain, no fear, only... Joy

Is it laughter? I can feel him hugging my waist from behind, spinning me around on a luscious green meadow, i felt happy, my heart fluttered like crazy, i can feel myself laughing with him, he hold my waist twisting me around facing him, his face was a blur but i can distinctly see that obsidian eyes, that lovely eyes.

"Aleksander" i can feel my mouth move, is that his name? The way i said it, so soft, so... Loving. Am i in love?..'

suddenly you jolted awake once again, not by your dream this time but by a sound of opened door, quite loudly you might said.

you sat up quickly ready to attack whoever penetrating their way into your chambers, your eyes met with women in white kefta, enhancing the color of her fiery locks. she walked to your side of bed with repelled look, glancing at you up and down.

"saints, you even worse than your friend. what happen to you?" she grimaced, gesturing over your bruises covered face. you bring your hand to your face, you don't know whats happening when people start barging around your room. she then snap her hand to the maids to bring you to the bath,
they started taking off your blooded blouse from previous event.
the water was warm, your previously tense muscles melt under the warm water, until you feel a harsh scrub on your back, so you jerk up to stop the attendant.

"Ladies, as much as i would love to get bath by you lovely ladies, i'm capable of doing it myself thank you" you send them a quick sarcastic smile and take the sponge and began to scrub yourself from any dirt that visible.
from the seat near the bath you can see red and white smile, not even bother try to hide her amusement of the scene, she notice a mark on the side of your rib, 'a birthmark?' she thought then she snap her delicate fingers again.
