After what felt like hours of being tortured, I no longer feel his hands on my neck. I soon feel water being poured all over me instead. My body felt ice-cold, and even though the water was warm, it felt like it was scalding hot! Screaming as loud as I can, I was finally able to get sounds out.
“I’m so sorry, baby! I’m just trying to clean off all the blood from you.” I hear him struggle to say, and I was somehow crying even more. “STOP IT! PLEASE JUST STOP!” I cry out, and he finally stops after a few more seconds.
He quickly changes into a different cloak as he got blood all over the one he was wearing before carefully picking me up and carries me to the bedroom.
He sits down on the bed and holds me tight in his arms as he tries to calm me down, even though he was crying himself. “I’m so sorry, baby. I’m sorry for what happened. I’m sorry for causing you even more pain. I’m sorry for making you cry. I’m so sorry for everything! Just, please know I did what I had to do to save you!” He says before kissing the side of my head.
“I love you so, so much, Amora. Thank you so much for staying awake for me, you are so strong!” He practically whispers into my ear, as he’s struggling to even speak. I try moving my arms to wrap around him, but I was still too weak to move anything.
He reaches over to grab a bigger blanket and begins to cover me up with it as he tries to keep me warm. He then lays back into the bed and lays me beside him. Tightly holding me in his arms, he continues to keep me warm as he places gentle kisses down my cheek.
I finally start to calm down after a while, and I slowly try to look up at him. “Undertaker...” I managed to say out. “Yes, my love?” He answers. “T-thank you... For saving me. Again. I love you so much too.” He leans down and presses his lips to mine, as he brings his hand to my cheek.
He breaks the kiss after a minute, knowing I was still weak from all the blood loss. “I refuse to let you be taken away from me again. Thank you for staying with me! I know how difficult it must have been, especially with losing as much blood as you did. Thank you so much.” He holds me even tighter.
“I made a promise to you... I said I was going to keep it. Just as I’d want you to.” I say, my voice very raspy, and he gives a big smile. “Undertaker!” We heard somebody shout, startling me at least.
“Where are you, come out here, now!” He lets out a sigh. “I’ll be right back, baby. It’s Grell.” He says as he looks into my eyes, and mine widen. “Undertaker... That weapon you had was a death scythe, wasn’t it?? They know, don’t they?! No, they’ll take you away from me-”
“Amora, hey it’s alright. I promise, I won’t let them find out. I’m not leaving you either, I love you.” Giving me another kiss, he gets out of bed to go see Grell. “Please don’t leave me here alone. Not after what just happened!”
He turns back to face me and leans his forehead against mine as he takes my hand. “I promise I won’t let anything else happen to you, I’ll be right out in the kitchen.” He says sweetly. “Please, I’m scared!” I started crying again.
“I know you are, love. I promise I’ll be right back, okay? I won’t let it take any longer than 2 minutes. Not even a second longer.”
“Undertaker, am I going to have to come in there myself?!” Grell yells. “I’ll be right back, love. I promise.” Giving me one more kiss, he quickly goes to leave the room.
Not wanting to just leave him be with a grim reaper who may have possibly found out about him, I fight myself with everything I could to move out of bed. Just as I got myself to sit up, the door flies open, and there stood an angry Grell.
“What happened, Amora?! There is a dead body in the shop, with a wound that resembles exactly to a death scythe! Undertaker isn’t telling me the truth, and he tells me you were seriously wounded, lost almost enough blood to die, yet you are sitting up in the bed! And another thing, I know I retrieved your soul 6 years ago, so how are you even still here?! You can’t be alive without a damn soul, so start explaining and tell the truth, or I will be taking Undertaker with me to headquarters!”
My eyes widen, and my heart begins beating like crazy. Terrified would be an understatement, and I needed to figure out what I’m going to say, and I needed to say it quick. Undertaker was standing beside her, and he was looking over at me, worried about what I would say.
“I-I don’t know what he told you, but I killed him myself. The truth is, I keep a special blade on me, that I’ve never shown to anybody before, not even him. I-I’ve... Always been fascinated by grim reapers... I think you guys are awesome! I designed my own blade to make it resemble a death scythe. That’s why I don’t show it to anybody, because I know I’d be... Made fun of.”
I know this was a terrible lie, and I wasn’t really expecting her to believe a single word, but I needed to come up with something at least. “That still doesn’t explain how you are sitting up in bed if you lost a lot of blood! And how you are even still here without a soul!”
“Honestly, it is extremely hard to move any part of me, but I still forced myself to get up. He closed my wound fast enough before I could lose any more. So I suppose we are extremely lucky that he does what he does for work, or I wouldn’t even be here right now. As for what had happened to me 6 years ago, I don’t know. I woke up in the casket, and started freaking out. Luckily there was something for me to ring the bell, and I guess he was around and got me out. I think of it this way, I wasn’t meant to die yet.”
I knew my lies were absolutely terrible, and I saw Undertaker rubbing his face as we wait to hear what she says. She was silent for another moment before speaking. “I suppose that would make sense. So tell me, where is your blade, can I see it?” She asks excitedly, and my eyes widen once more. She actually believed that?!
“Um... Actually, no. I’m not really comfortable showing it to anybody. Not even a grim reaper. It’s... I don’t know. Yes, I love what you do, but I just think I did a horrible job with it.” I look back over at Undertaker, and he was struggling not to laugh so much.
“Oh, alright. I suppose I better finish up with my work, so I’ll get going. I’ll leave you two to get back to doing whatever you were doing.” I immediately blush at her words.
She leaves the room and Undertaker quickly closes the door. He walks over to the bed next to me and bursts out laughing hysterically.
He continues to laugh for at least 5 minutes before he finally looks up at me. “Oh my... I laughed so much I thought I might die from lack of oxygen!” He then pulls me down beside him and wraps his arms around me. “My love, you are such a horrible liar! I have no idea why he wouldn’t believe me, and believed everything you have said, but I haven’t laughed like that in a long time.”
He then pulls me into a loving kiss before looking back into my eyes as he pushes his hair away. “You were never able to get some water, were you? I’ll go get some for you, you definitely need it after everything you were put through.” He goes to sit up, and I grab hold of his arm.
“I was never able to use the bathroom either.” I try saying, as my voice was still hoarse. “Alright, I’ll help you into the bathroom.” He helps me sit up and picks me up. Walking into the bathroom, he sets me down, still holding on to me.
“Alright, love. I’ll let you take care of the rest. I’m going to get you some water, and I’ll be right back to help you again.” He gives me another kiss before letting go. Leaving the room, he closes the door and I sit myself down and finally go.
