To Keep Her Safe

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO

Noey shook Rebecca in her sleep, she was worried that someone might come in when she is sleeping with Freen.

" Princess ? ". Noey called out softly, Rebecca hummed in her sleep and slightly shifted. " You should switch to your bed, it is already morning ". Noey said and Rebecca sleepily nodded, she rubbed her eyes.

She was about to wake up but she felt a strong arm wrapped around her waist. Rebecca glanced and saw that Freen had wrapped her good arm around Rebecca's waist in her sleep last night.

Noey chuckled as she saw the protectiveness of Freen even in her sleep. " Freen.... ". Rebecca softly called out her lover's name, she caressed her cheeks, trying to wake her up gently.

" Freen ". Rebecca tried again but Freen was in deep slumber due to the medicines given by the doctor last night. When Rebecca tried to remove the hand on her own, Freen frowned in her sleep and pulled Rebecca more towards her, locking her with her body.

" She isn't going to let go, I suppose ". Noey stated as she shook her head with a smile, Rebecca nodded shyly with a smile. " I can guard the door for another hour but you should switch up ". Noey patted Rebecca's shoulder and went out of the room after closing the door behind her.

" Are you seriously not going to let me go ? ". Rebecca mumbled, she looked up at her lover's face which was tense, maybe due to a dream she was having.

In her sleep, Freen instinctively brought Rebecca closer to her than before, not caring about her injuries. Rebecca was stunned as she realised that Freen must be having a nightmare about that night.

With shaky hands, Rebecca caressed her lover's sleeping face. " It is alright... ". Rebecca whispered, she gulped when her words did no good for the situation Freen was in. " Freen... You saved me ". Rebecca whispered again, in her sleep a tear slid down her eye, Rebecca took a deep breath in and wiped that single tear off her lover's face.

" I am alive, you are okay, we both are okay now, Freen ". Rebecca tried to reassure Freen, not knowing even if she is hearing this or not. " He is dead, Freen,  you are free from him now, he is not going to haunt you ". Rebecca whispered again, thinking why Freen was this worried about Becca was because she knew her father and his anger and what he could do.

" You stood by your promise, Teerak ". Rebecca whispered, now she was crying as well, she made Freen promise that she will stick by her side and Freen never broke it, she never will.

Rebecca glanced at the door, Noey signalled her to change beds instantly. Rebecca nodded, she tried to remove Freen's arm from her waist and unlike last time, Freen let it happen, she was visibly relaxed in her sleep now.

After Rebecca successfully settled in her bed, the queen rushed inside, followed by the royal doctor. " Good morning, Rebecca ". The queen greeted her daughter with a smile, with a hand signal she ordered the royal doctor to check up on Freen, who was still unconscious.

" Did you sleep well ? ". The queen directed her question to her daughter, Noey tried to hold her laugh in, Rebecca noticed that, she shyly nodded to the question. " Yes, I did ". Rebecca replied as she remembered that she was in Freen's arms just moments ago and she would have stayed there if her mother didn't enter.

" Her vitals are strong, she will wake up soon ". The royal doctor stated and the Queen nodded, dismissing the doctor, Rebecca heaved a sigh in relief.

" The chef is preparing food for both of you, you should be careful with your diet and nutrients and Sarocha needs to build her strength back ". The queen said, Rebecca nodded, smiling to herself, at least now Freen would be able to have a good meal.
