GRACE'S POV "lea" "lea" "lea" I groaned exhausted, my body was going through some excruciating pain and my head still throbbing like someone had smashed my head against rock. "azalea" my eyes snapped opened and a familiar face came into view, a huge smile embraced my face as i realized that it wasn't a dream, all of it was real, without wasting any second i threw myself in his arms. He stumbled a bit due to my unexpected move. "you startled me " alaz chuckled wrapping his hands around me, engulfing me in his warm embrace. "i thought it was a dream" i spoke as i hugged him more tightly. "no it wasn't" his words washed a wave of relief in my heart. "now, now you gotta sit here, i need to tell you something" i nodded as he gently unwrapped my hand and i settled on the bed again.
