Lionesse's pov

Damonia entered an hour or so ago and threw freezing water on her, freezing her from the cold, as snow was falling from the tiny window and on her body, after she dumped her limp body back in the cell.

Her body felt as if a thousand knives were piercing her skin and her eyes were still burning.

There was a young pup in the cell to her left.

His name is Dean and he is only 12 years old.

They brought him in a week ago, but did not hurt him still, as their focus was mostly on her.

He was the only other prisoner here.

She could hear him whimpering in fear, obviously horrified at her sight.

He suddenly touched her feet, making her jump a little and she knew that he reached for her through the bars.

She tried for a smile saying,

"Don't worry deary. Help will come. I think it's already quite late for me, but you will be fine"

"Don't talk like that miss. You will survive too. Good people like you can survive"

"Oh my sweetheart. I hope i still had hope like you but deary, it seems that i will only find peace if i finally die"

"NO, please don't say that. I don't want you to die. You remind me of my mummy you know. She is caring and sweet and loving like you"

She smiled softly at the boy and told him to take her small piece of bread too, cause he will need the strength.

She was too starved and numb to feel hunger anymore.

She heard a soft sniffle and she sadly smiled saying,

"Do not cry for the dead my dear boy, cry for the living, cause it is them who suffer, them who hurt, them who feel, them who fight to survive the merciless life"

He looked at her with wide, scared eyes and said,

"You can't die miss. Please don't die. I don't want you to. I don't want to stay alone miss. You are a very good friend. Please hold on. I have a feeling that help will come soon"

"Yes. They will come. I do know that. But the question is, will they make it in time?"

"They will make it miss. They will. You just wait and see" Dean said with a hope filled voice.

She painfully laughed at his hope.

He was still young.

Still too naive.

Her eyes were slowly closing from tiredness and had she closed them at that moment, death would've been sure.

"Don't go to sleep miss. You have to stay awake. I heard mummy say that people shouldn't go to sleep in extreme cold or when injured"

"Easy for you to say, dearie. However, since you're cold, take my blanket from the floor. I think that's where i last felt it yesterday. I can't put it on anyway since i am chained and my arms are broken"

"I am cold miss but not as much as you. Here, stay still for a little" and Lionesse could hear him straining and shuffling around.

Soon, she felt something rough, but warm nontheless, over her.
