The Opal Of Misterdan

Partner of the brok....

Welcome to chapter 29 :)

"Oh my Kijo's back, that's great"

"Where is he, is he hurt?"

"Oh no I had a bad feeling about this attack, I did warn him to let things go but he is too persistent"

"Come on let's go, he might need me"

Kijo and the other warriors were at the different healers' cottages getting treatment. Some of them had injuries and some were still unconscious from the way they fell in response to Mirlinde's power on them.

The ones with injuries had very minor injuries, unlike the damage Kijo caused on Misterdan, Mirlinde did not inflict even half of the harm, the pain, the grievance, the hurt and loss he caused. Kijo shook the whole of Misterdan and it will take a lot of work to get it back to back to what it was emotionally. He had forever caused a dent of pain and anguish in their hearts, he had created hatred from the people of the Greenland clan towards his'.

"Oh dear Kijo What happened I warned you about this" Heila said gently caressing Kijo's cheeks as his head laid on her lap and she drew soothing circles of his chest as their head healer applied some herbs on his right knee ball.

He had a very minor injury that he could even walk with that day but what specifically put Kijo in a state of disarray was the fact that he did not win the attack he planned against Mirlinde and the rest of Greenland. He had planned an exquisite and unfair way to put Mirlinde and her loved ones in a non-exsistence state.

To their luck he failed and this hurt his pride he was lost, hurt and in pain. He felt like a failure,with all the sorcery he had learned, practiced and mastered Mirlinde still beat him. He refused to let himself heal to let anyone in to help him, he was lost in his failure.

"Kijo talk to me" Helia complained

"Why are you so quiet"

I am right here what wrong, Kijo please respond you look so pale"

"Healer is my Kijo okay, is he hurt some where"Heila ask with worry and curiosity in her face as tears settled in her eyes

"He is fine madam Helia, no pain or injury to worry about. He just needs mental recovery" The healer attending to Kijo replied

"Please excuse me mam, I have a couple of things to do" He said dismissing himself

"Okay thanks for your work here" Heila replied, giving him a gentle smile.

After the healer left them alone, Heila looked down at Kijo with sorrows in her eyes.

She always wondered how someone so handsome, quiet and peaceful can have so much pain, anger and hurt in his eyes. Anyone who doesn't personally know the character of Kijo will think he is flawless both physically and in terms of behavior. He had bright but calm sparkling blue eyes, with button nose and mid size heart shaped lips he had long curly hair that gave sharp definition to his face. He had long eye lashes that complimented his cat shaped eyes. He was a rare species indeed and he knew that. He was a rare species with a stubborn personality.

Heila leaned her forehead on his, tears dripping slowly from her eyes. They fell onto his and he slowly started to blink. Heila, still sobbing with her forehead on his, was unaware that Kijo had woken up. " I did warn you to stay back, let all of this go but you are engrossed in your pain and thirst for revenge".

"Just come come to me 'Ki', please"

'Coughs'

Heila got startled as KIjo coughed trying to gain consciousness. "Oh my Kijo you scared me" Heila said, giving him a soft chuckle as he caught him off guard in a tight but soft embrace. "So glad you are awake 'Ki' you scared me you know, I almost thought I lost you"

"Sorry love, I didn't mean to scare you"
he said cupping her cheeks as they slowly let go of their embrace around each other

'Coughs'

"Can I please have water, I am quite thirsty here"

(chuckles)"Of course Mr. dehydration" Heila said as she poured him water to drink from one of the healers water pots to a cup.

"Thanks love"

"Why the frown 'Ki', you are awake now which is wonderful let's go home and talk about all what happened so you can lift up some stress and we can relax a little, okay 'Ki'" Heila said giving him a soft massage on his shoulders

"Thank Heila you are the one thing I always look forward to whenever I am away from you" Kijo said, getting up and giving her an appreciative hug.

"Do you want to race me there, you know you can't beat me" Kijo teased Heila

"Oh you bet I will" Heila bit back giving him a smirk

With that they race back home catching up to each other until they arrive at their home.

***

"Woah that was one heck of a run, Please don't go that fast again" Kijo said panting as they arrived home

"Well, then don't ever think you can beat me in a race again 'Ki'" she said, giving him a playful smirk which earned her a soft chuckle from him.

"Uh finally that smile, I missed that, now come in let's relax"

They got inside their home and Heila told Kijo to rest while she made a quick snack for them. She had already dismissed their help, sensing she and Kijo might need private time, she also made them decorate their bath and room so they can relax there.

Kijo refused to rest while Heila made the snacks alone, so he helped her with the snacks and also did the dishes and after, they headed to the bathroom to have a relaxing bath.
