Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

Chapter 205 - 205. You Should Talk Less Little Lamb

But before Markus could say anything, Kizy cut him off.

"Are you… alright? Weren't you stabbed and poisoned? Show me your… injuries." Kizy said with a little difficulty.

"You should talk less little lamb. And I am completely fine. Yes I was stabbed but my wounds have been treated. And the daggers were just mildly poisoned." Markus said.

"H.. how?" Kizy asked, before pausing, remembering all the things, before her eyes widened.

"Aaron." Markus said while nodding his head, knowing Kizy had guessed the same.

"Where? Where is Aaron?" Kizy asked, her voice sounding weird and a little shaky.

"You'll know that later on. For now let's not discuss him." Markus said, his tone grave.

"Is he… he alive?" Kizy asked, tears forming in her eyes, remembering that unfortunate day.

She could still remember vividly about how Aaron had saved her life in his wretched state, when he was bleeding profusely, but still kept her safe while taking all the hits from those men.

If he was to die such a cruel death, then Kizy would never forgive herself for her entire life.

Because if not for her, the professor would have never saved Aaron, nor had he used him for such a plan.

And she felt as if she was nothing less than a cunning and manipulative girl, who had taken advantage of the feelings Aaron had for her.

But Markus had been warned by the doctors that Kizy was not to be triggered. Thus he took a deep breath before saying.

"I will tell you everything sometime later. For that, you will have to recover early." Markus said before tucking her inside the blanket.

"You.. you were about to tell me something?" Kizy asked, feeling a little low.

"First get well soon. Then I'll tell you about it." Markus said in a careful tone.

Kizy just looked at him before slowly closing her eyes, easily drifting off to sleep because of her weak state.

Markus looked at her before going back to the window, making a call which was interrupted by Kizy.

"Hello." A male voice was heard from the other side.

"How is she? Is she adapting well?" Markus asked.

"Kind of." The man on the other side replied.

"What about you?" Markus questioned again.

"Better than her." The man replied.

"Kizy has woken up." Markus said after a short pause.

"I was already informed. You are late." The man said, though he wasn't complaining.

"Fine. Then stay safe and take good care of her. Bye." Markus said.

"Goodbye." The man on the other side said before hanging up the call.

Markus just stood near the window, looking towards the lonely city.

Kizy slept peacefully till afternoon before she woke up. Kate and grandma had bought lunch for her and Markus.

Kizy was only allowed to have light food and a semisolid diet, thus Markus had the same without any complaints.

Kate and grandma stayed for two more hours before Markus shooed them away.

"How long have I been sleeping?" Kizy asked after she felt a little better than before. She had also taken a walk in the corridor after doctor's advice.

"Precisely thirteen days, seventeen hours, thirty four minutes. I forgot to count the seconds." Markus said, making Kizy laugh a little.

"Did you start a stopwatch or something? I just wanted to know the days." Kizy said, genuinely smiling for the first time after getting up.

"The time wasn't passing at all. No matter whether I felt that I had spent hours looking at your pale face, originally it would be barely a few minutes. These thirteen days were the longest and worst days of my life." Markus said, remembering how difficult it was getting to keep holding on each day.

Kizy became quiet once again, not knowing what to say.

Finally she took a deep breath.

"Sorry." Was the only thing she managed to speak.

"I don't want your apology, little lamb. Just promise me that you are never appearing in that state again." Markus said, remembering how weak, fragile, defenceless Kizy looked before they brought her back to A city.

Kizy once again paused, not sure if she should promise this.

"I don't want to see you like that again Kizy. I want you to always come cursing at me, or maybe occasionally give me a tender smile. Maybe sometimes get angry at me or scold me. But don't ever get into that state again." Markus said, his voice cracking.

Only he himself knew the kind of pain he had felt when he had found her unconscious, when the doctor had announced her comatose state, when Rose had narrated her last moments before getting unconscious. Every single scene out of it was enough to break his heart a thousand times.

"I promise." Kizy said after a while. 

Though she hadn't seen anything in the past thirteen days, she could only imagine the kind of pain her family was suffering because of her.

She didn't want them to go through all that once again.

Thus this wasn't a promise to Markus but for herself, that no matter what situation would arise, she will keep herself safe for the sake of her family and friends.

"What about Jason?" Kizy asked.

Kizy remembered that it was Jason who had carried her till Aaron before she was unconscious.

"He came to visit you thrice." Markus said.

"I made them suffer again. Not just them, but all of you." Kizy said.

"But we never felt that way." Markus said.

"Sorry." Kizy said with a heavy heart, guilty for being the root cause of this problem.

"I love you." Suddenly Markus said, out of the blue.

"Huhh?" Kizy said, looking straight at Markus, contemplating whether she heard it wrong.

"I said I love you, Kizy!" Markus said, smiling a little from watching her shocked expression.

"This ain't time for your jokes Markus." Kizy said, feeling butterflies in her stomach.
