Chapter 213: Waking Up from a Nightmare
“Ed...ward...” I whispered his name in shock.
Edward sighed as he strode towards us until he was standing firmly at my side.
“Are you ok? Stupid question, I guessed you’re not...” Edward said as he wrapped an arm around my waist to provide me support.
I wanted to ask how he got here. What else he knew? Was Reiner telling the truth?
However, I didn’t have the strength in me to speak anymore. I just looked blankly between Reiner and Edward as my mind struggled to phantom what was going on. I felt my body slowly going numb and then my whole face...and then...
“Natalia!” I heard someone call my name, but I couldn’t see, and I couldn’t respond.

**Beep Beep Beep**
The constant beeping sound of some machine that I was unfamiliar with was the first thing I sensed when I came to. The bright light in that white room was blinding when I slowly opened my eyes. The room was big, way too big for one person and a medical bed.
The smell of disinfectant filled my nostrils confirming that I had just woken up in a hospital. Glancing to the side of my bed I saw that I was hooked up to a machine and IV bag where transparent liquid dripped slowly into the tube that was connected to the vein in my arm.
I felt tired and stressed but apart from that I didn’t feel too bad. I wonder how long I was out for. The clock read sometime midafternoon.
