Melany sighed deeply.
“I just hope that he won’t destroy the town after he wakes up,” she said in a low voice, her expression grim.
“He won’t,” I promised in a hoarse voice.
Now that the worst was over, I rested for a while in the operating room. After I felt a little better, I went back to the ward to see
Caleb.
Although he was still unconscious, he Looked much better than before, and his face wasn’t so pale anymore.
I touched his handsome face and sighed in relief.
“You’re going to be okay,” I murmured softly.
I was so exhausted from the whole ordeal that I fell asleep on the edge of the bed.
The following morning, I opened my eyes only to find that the bed was empty.
Only the messy, wrinkled bed sheet was proof that someone had slept there the night before.
But where was Caleb? Did a nurse take him away?

I stood up in a hurry, anxious to look for him.
“Debra? I’m right here.”
Caleb’s Low voice sounded from behind me.
The familiar voice was like a gentle spring breeze washing over my heart, taking all of my worries with it.
Debra’s POV:
“Caleb, you’re awake!”
I was so surprised and delighted that I couldn’t help but throw myself into his arms and burst into tears. “I almost thought you weren’t going to make it.”
“Me, dead? You Look worse than me.” Caleb smiled playfully.
Despite his teasing, he gently wiped my tears with his thumbs.
His soft lips landed on the corner of my eye as he kissed away my tears.
Then, he slowly Lowered his head and pressed his Lips against mine
Stunned, I forgot how to breathe for a moment. Then, I closed my eyes and kissed him back. When I parted my mouth slightly, his deft tongue slipped in to dance with mine. Our breathing became heavy and more possessive.
Caleb’s eyes took on a different Light. The next second, he scooped me up and laid me on the bed. Then he climbed on top of me.
