Nevis POV

Opening my eyes I noticed that I'm laying on a comfortable bed with fluffy covers and lots and lots of pillows.

No longer am I strapped and chained to that big X in that monsters torture room. Where he beats me with different things like whips and paddles. Looking down at the comfortable bed I'm on now, has replaced the box spring I have been sleeping on and left tied to for days at a time.

"This can't be the same room I've been held in for the past few weeks." I think to myself.

Looking around I see everything is covered in white and there are medical instruments sitting next to me. There are constant beeps, echoing throughout the room from the various machines that are around.

Yet, I'm sure this isn't a hospital, but the IV that's sticking out of my arm and the air mask covering my face, definitely makes me wonder.

Taking a deep breath because my head is throbbing, and my body is aching. I lift my arms confirming that I am no longer strapped down.

"What's going on?" I am still totally confused about my situation.

Still unaware of where I am..my eyes are wandering around the room curiously, until they settle on a figure standing in front of a computer in the corner wearing a white coat.

Focusing my eyes more, I see it's a short older woman with blonde hair that's styled neatly into a low bun, wearing glasses and nibbling on the tip of a pen.

"I gotta get out of here before she notices I'm awake." I think to myself.

I slowly remove the IV from my arm and take the mask off my face. I was successful in my efforts until I went to take off those blasted heart monitor stickers and that sent the machine in to flatline mode and alerted the lady in white immediately.

"Oh goodness you startled me child." she smiles brightly at me as she walks closer.

In a panic, I tried to stand out of the bed quickly to keep her as far away as possible, but I ended up tangled in the sheets and falling right over the edge, tipping over the tray and sending instruments flying to the floor.

Not giving the stranger a chance to get too close, I picked up the first thing I saw which was a syringe with a pretty long needle and backed into a corner ready to strike.

"W..Who are you?" my voice is coming out a bit shaky.

Stopping her movements and raising her hands in surrender the woman responded, "Ms. Frost... I need you to calm down, please."

"Who are you!!" I repeat it louder this time.

"You have been under my care for the past three days. Now can you please put down that syringe? I'm afraid you're going to hurt yourself." The woman reasons as she attempts to take a step forward.

Seeing this I picked up the tray off the ground beside me and threw it past the doctor's head with all my might, landing it into the wall with a loud thump.

"Stay away from me!!" I yell at her as tears start streaming down my face.

Shocked from my display the doctor paused in her movements and put her hands back up, "Please calm down Ms. Frost. No one here is going to hurt you. Can you please give me the needle?"

"NO!!..Where am I? Who are you? What is this place?... please let me go!!", I cried out scared to death and confused.

"What's going on here?" a deep familiar voice calls out.

I think my mind is playing tricks on me.

Looking over to where the voice resignated from, I see the same face that has been in my dreams for the past few weeks.

"Rory?" My voice is barely above a whisper.

"Yes min kärlek, it's me." He assures me as he steps closer into the room.(my love)

"Rory? Is...is that really you? No, it can't be, you're just another hallucination, another figment of my imagination." I ramble on in disbelief.

Everyday that I was in that hell hole, thoughts of Rory were the only thing that kept me sane. Hoping and praying that one day I could see him again.

"No babygirl, I'm real and I'm standing right in front of you."

As I stare at his features making sure not to miss a single detail. From his sandy hair that's hanging on his shoulders , to his chiseled jawline that has a small scar underneath his beard, that you would miss if you didn't look close enough.

Satisfied that I am not dreaming I dropped the syringe and threw myself into Rory's arms with no hesitation as tears streamed down my face.

"Rory...oh Rory!" I wail out releasing all the pain I had refused to show that monster who took me.

"You had me worried babygirl, you've been asleep for three days. I didn't know when you would wake up." He tells me as he rubs my hair soothingly.

"How did I get here? How did you find me?" I ask in a hurry.

"Shhhh...enough questions. I want you to get back in bed and get some rest, there will be plenty of time later to get your answers. Just know that you are safe here and nothing will happen to you."

Nodding in understanding because my brain needs a break to catch up with everything that's happening. I go to lay back in bed with Rory right on my trail. He tucks me under the covers and gives me a pretentious kiss on my forehead.

"You're such a good girl sweetheart. Get some rest and I'll get some food sent up, you must be starving."

Yes I am

"I am..a little hungry." I confirm lowly as I look at his majestic face.

With a small smile tugging on his lips he pinches my cheeks and talks to me in a teasing manner.

"And what would my little baby like to eat?"

This beast of a man.

"Nooo....stop it!! Don't pinch my cheeks you beast!!" I playfully cry out as I pout.

"Okay..okay I'll stop, get some rest... I'll wake you when your food is here." Rory tells me as he gets up to leave.

"Hey Rory?"

Stopping and turning towards me, he responds with a simple "yes?"

Finding my courage I can finally tell him properly..."Thank you."

Yeah that "courage" didn't last very long because I instantly lowered my head and intertwined my fingers.

Hearing footsteps closing the distance between us, a hand grabs a hold of my chin and brings my head up and my eyes instantly to his.

Now that he looks contempt, he asks a question I wasn't expecting. "Now tell me babygirl, why are you thanking me?"

How do I answer this

"F..for noticing I was gone." I say very softly but I know he still heard me clearly because what he said next causes my heart to melt.

"Listen to me carefully. You never have to thank me for coming to take back what was stolen from me. I told you once before that...you. are. mine, sweetheart. That means I don't share, and I sure as hell don't tolerate others touching what belongs to Me...and ME only!" His eyes never wavier as he tells me his truth.

Tears start forming in my eyes as I stare at this Adonis in front of me. Knowing my heart has fallen for him long ago, and unexpectedly.

As he pushes me back softly for me to lay down again... He plants another kiss on my head and tells me to get some rest.

My head and my heart is in overdrive still trying to understand how I ended up here and how he found me. No matter how, I am just super happy he did..and I can't help but express it to him. So before he could get all the way out the door, I said out loud,

"I'm so glad you found me." and I finally close my eyes and let the darkness take over.
