Elder Micah then turned to Nathan and I. It was our turn. My mark began to burn as Micah began. I
knew that this meant it was getting larger yet again. As Micah talked the burning was getting worse
almost unbearable as it now wrapped across my front. It was getting rather uncomfortable. I was to
busy trying to get situated and relieve some of the burn, I hadn’t noticed everyone was staring at me. I
looked around waiting for someone to tell me what I had missed when I got a link from my mother.
“Control your emotions Dream. You are glowing so bright we can hardly see.” She said. “I can’t. IM
BURNING. MY MARK FEELS LIKE IT IS ON FIRE. IT HURTS! “ I explained. My mother quickly stood up and
came to he front. This got a lot of attention from my grandparents and my protectors as they began to
growl. My mom came over “What do you mean, it should not hurt like that” she told me as she looked
to see what was going on. She looked up and yelled “LOCK DOWN IMMEDIATELY! NO ONE LEAVES. I
NEED THE DOCTOR NOW!!” She looked at me tears running down her face. “Dream the gown has been
laced with silver. We have to get it off of you and it is going to hurt. The dress has burned into you” she
explained as my father and grandparents came up. She tried to cool me down with her powers. It o lyhelped for a second though. I couldn’t shift because the silver would only burn Star worse than it was
burning me. The doctor came running as Nathan and Marcus got something to block me from everyone
seeing.
The doctor immediately began to pour some liquid down my front. It felt so good and cool. “That will help
numb you some my Queen. I won’t lie, this next part is going to hurt like hell but we don’t have any
choice right now.” He warned as he nodded to my father and grandfather’s. “Dream I need you to order
your protectors to stand down if not they will attack us” my father said worried as zade and Gus were
already growling . “Stand down guys, that is an order” I mustered out. The pain had returned once
again. The doctor poured more liquid down my front as my mom tried cooling me with her powers. I
felt my father and grandfahers grip tighten around me. I knew then whatever the doctor was about to
do, it was going to be bad. Very bad.
I screamed out in pain, shattering windows and shaking the entire palace as the doctor and Marcus
along with Aerie and Brian pretty much ripped the gown away from my body, peeling back burned flesh
as they did. Blood dropped covering the white on my gown. My father and the others were struggling to
keep me contained. My grandmothers had both stepped up and I knew Grandma Rose was using spells
to help control my powers from exploding. Queen Isabella was busy with applying ointment to my front
to help relieve the pain until I wasn’t sure what was going ro happen next..
“We have to move her to the hospital to be hosed down to make sure the silver is all gone” I heard
faintly. I knew what this meant. I was going to lose consciousness soon if this pain continued. I was
fading in and out as I felt myself being lifted. I tried to stay awake, but it was hard.
Relief came waking me up from the feel of cold water spraying me down forcefully. BUT IT FELT SO
WONDERFUL. I realized that my mother and Queen Isabella, my grandmother, were under the water
spray as well holding me up as the doctors and nurses sprayed me from every angle. The water began
to gradually warm helping to remove particles from my dress that had burned into my skin. “who could
have done this and why” I heard my mother ask my grandmother. “I’m not sure, but whoever it was, we
have them. No one is allowed to move. The design team is now being interrogated to see if they had
something to do with it. “ I heard her answer.
“Dream I’m working on healing you. It’s just a lot to fix” Star told me in the back of my mind. “Can I do
anything that will help. I can’t do much because of the pain but I’ll try.” I told her. “Ask my grandmother
and mother to help” Star answered busily working on saving me. I wasn’t sure if I could speak or not.
“Star. Help….” I barely got out. “What Dream?” My mom asked me trying to understand. “Star…..
needs….help .. mo” I couldn’t fi is as I collapsed in exhaustion barely able to stay awake at this point
now. I could hear my mom and grandmother whispering but I don’t know if they understood or not. “I
tried Star” I said to my wolf as she began to fade in and out. “Rest Dream. You will be ok” she answered
as blackness consumed me completely.
