Chapter - Twenty - Initialed

Bethany's POV...

I was fine.

Sally saved me.

Everything stopped hurting and somehow Sally found out that Amber, her housemate, was actually a witch, and begged her to come see me to find out what was wrong with me.

My body had a seizure, which was not something I remembered, all I do remember was me drawing and then suddenly a blank, a moment in time that felt like never happened, like I was asleep during all of it. Like I was never there in the first place.

It's been a week since Jack last opened his eyes, and a few days since my heat disappeared thanks to Amber, the doctors said that he was unresponsive to anything they gave him but I healed him and they told me that he should be awake and walking in a few days.

But his body would react to my touch and presence which was a good sign, it meant that he knew what was happening around him.

His heart rate would speed up whenever I was with him in the room and at my touch, his fingers would move slightly, you'd miss it if you weren't looking closely but I did when I held his hand after I woke up for the third time. It was brief but he squeezed my hand and that was enough to fill me with relief.

I never left his side the past week, his brain activity was less frantic and the doctors said that he would be up and about in no tome, they were extremely worried about me because I have had a lot of fainting episodes after I finished my heat, my appetite wasn't helping either, I had lost all my appetite the past week, I was basically surviving on water and oxygen. I had also lost remarkably a lot of weight, it was noticeable too but my main priority was Jack.

I had sent a wind whisper to my mother, telling her what happened and asked her to prepare a hunt for the cunt that put my mate in his coma.

I always laugh bitterly when I realize how much this resembled one of the books I read, just with the roles reversed, I was in the male's place instead of being in my role, feeling the pain instead of being in the coma.

I was in Jack's room like every other day and decided to sing to pass the time and because I knew that Jack listened to what was happening around him, it would be soothing to him.

"Akiro al mi, kion mi volas tuj," I muttered a spell that teleported my guitar here, I wasn't planning to leave and walk all the way back to the cabin, when Jack was stuck here, if he was stuck here, then I'm stuck here with him.

I tune the guitar slowly, my movements were sluggish and weak because I hadn't gotten a good night sleep in a week so it did not surprising at all.

I smile softly as the perfect song came to mind, it matched the situation excellently. I strum the guitar slowly and cross my left leg over my right leg, placing the guitar on my bent knee, I start to play the instrument.

"Lost in your mind
I wanna know
Am I losing my mind?
Never let me go" I sing the first verse slowly, coating my tone with emotion as I realized how true the lyrics were in this situation.

Trapped in his mind, not able to communicate words and feeling like he was slowly decaying, that's what Jack's thoughts were probably right now, it made my throat tighten and my eyes to shine with unshed tears as I stared at his I responsive handsome face.

"If this night is not forever
At least we are together
I know I'm not alone
I know I'm not alone" The next verse brought a smile to my face, it was true.
