Chapter 20

A rough callused hand fell atop hers, warmth spread throughout her entire body. Her eyes grew wide at the contact and it took her three deep breaths to compose herself and glance at Erickson. 

She turned slowly, everything felt in slow motion. His crystal clear blue eyes locked with hers, there was pain there...pain and passion all mixed up in that blue sea. 

Closer and closer he moved in, she felt gravity pulling her forwards, towards his inviting lips. His breath was on her face, slowly not of her own accord her eyes lids fell.

A slight tingle, a minuscule brush against her bottom lip and then the screaming reached both their ears. 

Erickson jumped up and rushed out of the carriage. Nora was in a fog and sat immobile unsure of what was going on. 

“Someone help! It’s the queen!” 

-----------

Fiora bounded out of the carriage trying not to giggle. She felt ridiculous over this plan but she had a feeling deep in her gut that these two were meant to be together. 

Erickson was such a pleasant man, truly not a mean bone in his body. He was the kind of person who would drop anything and help you in an instant. 

The more time she spent with Nora the more she could see she was in love with Erickson. Marrying Rafael made her feel that...if she could be truly happy and had her happy ending so can anyone else. 

“Some people just need a little nudge in the right direction.” She thought to herself smiling. 

Fiora entered the small store where she needed to purchase nothing at all. She just wanted to ensure some alone time for Nora and Erickson. 

“Good afternoon!” The shop keeper called from the back. 

“Good Aft-” She paused feeling a sudden bought of nausea overtake her. Dry heaving slightly she grabbed onto a near by self. 

“...good day.” Fiora practically whispered.

It felt as though she was about to loose the contents of her stomach in the next few seconds. 

She stumbled towards the door, not wanting to ruin this poor shop keepers floor. 

As she began taking long laboring steps, darkness crept into her vision. Her eyes were trained upon the door, that was where she needed to go.  Black dots shown off to her right and left, they began to grow larger. It was like having tunnel vision, only a small dot was still visible in the center of her eyesight. 

“I have to get back to the carriage.” Fiora thought frantically. 

Her hearing went next, it was like having cotton stuffed into her ears. 

“Excuse...me miss?” The voice sounded behind her in slow motion...and muffled like she was under water. 

Fiora’s hand hit the door handle and she pushed it open just as her vision went completely. 

She had felt this feeling before, when she had been kidnapped. She was going to faint. 

Fiora felt herself falling, she had forgotten about the sets into the shop. Her legs would no longer move, she had lost control completely. 

“Help” 

Nothingness.
