The Baby Rising A Devil

Chapter 24

The voice of the individual flowed into my head and somehow, the mere sound managed to distort my vision. With my sight out of control, everything in front of my eyes became fuzzy and dark.

I could feel my heart beating against my ribcage, racing against the emerging dizziness in my head.

"Child."

"Ah......"

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

The sound of my heart pounding filled my ears. My lungs felt tight and I couldn't breathe. The dizziness was maddening and my vision just kept getting darker and darker.

I could feel the world spun around unceasingly. My feet staggered and....

Thump!

I fell on the cold hard floor with a thud.

'...'

"Blaine!"

I could hear Henry's and Isaac's voice nearing the room. Before they could arrive, my mind was already lost in my final thoughts.

'Who the hell is that person?'

'Why did I feel so nauseous when I heard the voice?'

***

How much time has passed...? I tried to open my eyes and moved my body, but my eyelids felt like it was sewn tight and my hand weighed a ton.

"Why hasn't she opened her eyes when there's no problem with her? Did you check her thoroughly? Answer me unless you want to die!"

"Check her again. Find out why she fell. If you can't, don't even think of leaving this room alive."

My ears were soon filled with thundering angry, impatient voices.

"Stop it, Henry, Isaac. "

'Is that the duke's voice?'

A dull sound of footstep was heard in the pin-drop silence. The footstep finally stops. A sudden shriek pierced everyone's ears and barrage of pleas followed.

"I'm telling you, sir! There's nothing wrong with her! She is healthy!"

"Then why isn't she awake yet."

"Bu-but really!"

"If you can't wake her up, I'll cut off all of your throats. "

'What?!'

Out of shock, I opened my eyes wide. It didn't feel as heavy as before.

"Blaine...!"

"Leblaine!"

Two blurry shadows started to form under my hazy sight. It was Henry and Isaac.

'No, why are they here?'

I scanned the room as I blinked my eyes to dispel the thin fog cloaking my sight. I was lying on the bed, while Henry and Isaac were glued to my bed's sides. Out of the corner of my eyes, I could see Lea's figure behind them. Thirty doctors were kneeling on the floor and standing in front of the doctors was the duke with Nos behind him.

"Dyuke." (Duke.)

I called him, but my voice was hoarse, yet still the duke managed to hear my voice. He came to my bedside immediately.

"Are you all right?"

As I nodded, a relieved sigh came out from the duke's mouth. Soon after, he turned his head towards the doctors. I let out a deep sigh in my mind.

'Thankfully, I woke up in time.'

The child of fate who was sent from the church collapsed at Dubbled, so the doctors were called to check on the child. Unfortunately, they weren't able to diagnose what's the issue and why I blacked out.
