Chapter 123: Your majesty! I’m back
Noah POV
Nothing happened.
I sat on the chair behind the big mahogany desk in my office until sun rays pierced through the morning sky blessing us with its orange rays and dispelling the last bit of the darkness that had come with the full dark moon throughout the night.
I couldn’t sleep last night... I alternated between each security station demanding an update every thirty minutes, which decreased to twenty and then to ten before finally five minutes as the night progressed. That was because I had a premonition that something would happen. I could feel it in the air and I wasn’t sure I’d be prepared.
Still, I stayed up until the first morning light streaked in through the windows. Hoisting myself from my chair, I strolled to the French window in my office and opened it, inviting the freshness that came with the breeze into the office. I should be happy that the night passed peacefully but why was I still restless?
I could still feel worry tugging at the sides of my heart. I had told myself several times yesterday that the reason why everything was calm was because of Xavier’s intervention still my heart was still not settled. Pushing away from the window, I walked to the cupboard at one corner of the office to make myself coffee wondering how Xavier was faring this morning and if he survived.
After making a cup of coffee, I went back to the window to enjoy it. As I raised the coffee mug to my lips, the door of my office was forced open and my sister Nora stalked in looking agitated. Her face was purple with rage as she marched towards me.
"Do you want my son to die? Is this your plan?" she growled "Why would you order that Selene should not go and heal him. You knew damn well that they needed each other in the first place, why did you marry her? Please" she lowered her tone "Revoke the order. He’s not going to survive if nothing is done about it, please,".
"Good morning, Nora!" I said before taking a long sip from my coffee mug "I already received a report from the hospital this morning and they said things are looking up much better than they did yesterday. I know you want faster results and I understand that but I cannot let my wife fuck your son just for him to heal? Put yourself in my shoes... how would you feel if a woman was asked to fuck your husband to heal someone else? Does it even make sense,".
