" I feel cold, Isiah " she said while looking at him with a lot of fear in her eyes .
Lexie was never afraid of him since she got to know him better , she was never afraid of him as a mage , she was just afraid of him as a human being like her .
She knew that she meant nothing to him, she knew that he is capable of letting her alone to die , she knew that he could kill her so easily without a blink of his eyes , and she knew that every other girl in this world might have a chance to be loved or even taken care of by him except of her .
She tried so hard not to cry as she said those words but she ended up shocked with her tears .
" I am sorry …I will not cry anymore , just …ignore this "
Isiah looked at both her hands that were on top of the cover, the one that melted was still shaking since the incident .Isiah thought at the first night that this happened because of the pump of adrenaline but right now he was not sure anymore .
If her hand is still shaking like this , this only means that she had damages her nerves because of that spell he made .
The other hand was healing just fine but slowly because of her health in general.
Isiah stood by Lexie's bedside very fast , he did that without any warning , she was not expecting that which made her stomach ache and tremble .
Isiah was still having that cold look in his eyes while he was watching her shiver and shake beneath the covers.
She was sick, and the illness had left her unable to sleep or find any comfort.
"The fireplace is working , it will take time before the room is going to be warm"
Lexie nodded her head very fast , she just couldn't explain to him what she wanted , she was so desperate even to think that he would understand what she meant .
The only thing that she wanted at that moment was to feel the human warmth of his body , however he just thought that she was cold .
"It will take time, yes ," Lexie muttered, her voice barely above a whisper.
Isiah sighed and went to the closet, grabbing an extra blanket to place over her.
"Just try to rest," he said with a serious look on his face.
Lexie's eyes closed, and for a moment, Isiah thought she had fallen asleep. But then she spoke again.
"I'm sorry," she whispered.
Isiah's hand tensed, and he felt his anger begin to boil up again. He wanted to pull away, to tell her that her apology was too little, too late. He had never forgiven her for what she did, and he wasn't about to start now.
" Don't you ever dare to think that things changed between us , nothing changed " He said , very coldly.
Lexie opened her eyes right away when she realized that he was still mad , she bit her lips then she tried to sit on the bed forcibly .
She was breathing heavily while leaning on both of her injured hands , the pain was immeasurable yet just the sense of guilt that was right then pushed her to even move when she couldn't .
" What are you doing ? " he shouted at her .
Lexie just extended her arms toward him, he was still standing next to her and looking at her from above .
" I ..Am not saying this to make you forgive me …please don't …don't forgive me "
She was crying heavily and Isiah felt confused by the way she was acting , her expressions were filled with pain yet she just didn't rest as he asked her , she just had to push her body to the limit .
She just put her hands on his hands , and despite all of the pain she felt , she just grabbed his body towards her bed , she forced Isiah to sit next to her .
" Don't forgive me " she said while looking into his eyes which felt so close as he was sitting next to her .
" What are you doing ? Just sleep in your bed " he said very firmly .
Lexie leaned towards him , she was not even comfortable with moving , and her hand that melted was still shaking , she just rested her hand on his shoulder and then said to him :" I will love you? Isiah, I will love you even if you were to kill me in the future , nothing changed , you are so free to hate me and I think I am free too to love you "
Lexie moved away from him she put both of her hands on her lap, Isiah looked into her face , then he looked at her hand that was shaking then he said :" I told you, I am going to kill , don't you ever dare try to get closer to me , or even think that you could talk to me so easily "
Lexie was still crying but she didn't look at him this time , she knew him enough to be so sure that he was telling the truth .
" I will make sure to stay away from you…" she said while not being able to even look at his cold eyes .
At that moment Isiah moved away from the bed, he even left the room very fast while she kept looking at the fireplace with tears in her eyes .
Isiah went outside that room, he even walked outside the house in that terrible weather , he called for Eijar right away as he stood at the door looking at the snow falling on the ground .
| " Master , you called for me ? "Eijar said to him .
" Is he okay? Ciel?"
" He is, he struggled to sleep at first but I helped him, it must be because of everything that happened , is she okay ? " Eijar asked very fast .
" No …and we are not going to wait here for her until she heals , I am leaving this place first thing in the morning "
