Chapter 441: [Bonus - ]Are you at ease now?
GASP!
Heaven gasped for air, sitting up on instincts. Her heart was thudding as drops of sweat covered her forehead and drenched her back.
"Heaven, are you okay?"
Her eyes shook as she blinked, moving them to the person beside her. Relief instantly surged in her heart as she leaped, throwing herself at Dominic. The latter furrowed his brows, rubbing her trembling back.
"It’s just a nightmare..." he said reassuringly, feeling her body vibrate against him. "Everything is okay. It’s just a bad dream. It’s okay. I’m here."
Heaven clutched his back, shutting her eyes as she listened to his soothing voice. She couldn’t say a word as her heart was racing so fast she had to catch her breath. When she calmed down, Dominic sat her with her back against the headboard before fetching her a glass of water.
"Here," he said, handing her a glass of water as he sat down on the edge of the bed.
"Thanks." Her voice was coarse. She took a sip while Dominic kept his eyes on her.
"I heard you mumbling in your sleep as if you were struggling. I tried to wake you up," he said as she swallowed a mouthful of water. "How are you feeling now?"
"I’m... okay, better." She pressed her lips into a thin line, moving her gaze down at the glass of water in her hand. Her heart barely calmed down, but the fear in it was still vivid.
’What an ominous dream,’ she thought, still remembering the nightmare she had just now.
