Chapter 103
CAMILLA’S PO.V
I felt extremely weak and exhausted but I somehow managed to open my eyes. It felt like I had the weight of a thousand carriages on me.i could barely lift my hands or even move my eyes but I managed to fixate them on the window outside. It truly was a beautiful night and I couldn’t stop myself from saying as such.
Ryker literally froze. His entire body tensed and he slowly turned to me as if scared that he would see something else. The moment his eyes settled on me, I managed a small smile and he practically threw himself into me. I couldn’t help but smile as he held me tight. It was something I had missed so dearly especially when he peppered kisses all over my face. He pulled back in disbelief and stared at me as if he had seen a ghost.
“Tell me this is real,” he whispered and tears gathered in my eyes. “Fuck, baby, I thought I had lost you. The vampire and the physician, they said that there was no cure.”
“There isn’t,” I cut him off and his brows furrowed. “Can I have some water first?”
He instantly rushed to get me a glass and helped me into a sitting position. Once I was a little more refreshed, I told him everything. I told him about my limbo state and what my mother had told me. I knew I sounded absolutely crazy but if there was one thing I could count on from Ryker, it was that he would always listen no matter how absurd I sounded. By the time I was done speaking, he looked lost in thought.
“I don’t know how she fixed the balance or what she plans to do but I’m guessing she did,” I shrugged but Ryker didn’t look convinced.
“There has to be more to it. We will find that out soon,” as soon as he said that, the smile on his face disappeared and he turned to me with hard eyes. “What the hell were you thinking when you went out by yourself? Why didn’t you just wait an extra day for me so we could go together.”
I had expected that he would be upset but I didn’t think he would start yelling this soon. For what it was worth, he looked more scared than upset. I knew he was talking from a place of worry. If anything had happened to me, Ryker would have lost his mind literally and figuratively and I didn’t think about that before I left.
“I’m sorry, I just wanted to help.”
“What do you mean by help? You have done so much already.”
I sighed. “You have been on top of everything since day one. You live for this lifestyle, things are easy for you. I feel like I am in way over my head here and I just thought that if I could figure out something then maybe it would make everything better. It was stupid, I know.”

Ryker went completely silent and then he sighed. He sat at the edge of the bed and pulled me into his side. “There is nothing for you to prove. You are the Queen, Camilla. You have already done more than enough for the people in this palace and every day you risk your life for them. You are the only person who thinks you aren’t doing enough.copy right hot novel pub
