My Omega Queen Chapter 24: Rest and Relaxation

POV: Emily

My eyes open slowly and I see two blurry figures in front of me. For some reason I can’t make out their faces, only that one of them has long, brown hair and the other’s is short and blonde. They lean down towards me and seemingly kiss me on the forehead, leaving a warm spot. Their presence makes me feel so safe and happy. The brown-haired one had tears running down the face, right before they turned their backs to me and left. Suddenly, a cold sensation envelops my body and I feel like I want to start running towards them, but I trip and fall down in the dense, white snow. When I look up, there’s nobody around and everything is cold and scary. So I started screaming for them.

That’s when I wake up, gasping for air. I looked around, and I noticed that I was in an infirmary room, hooked again to an IV and a vitals monitor. Besides my bed, there’s Edward looking at me with a worried expression. “Why is he looking at me like that?” I think, when I notice tears running down my face, even though I don’t remember what I was crying for.
