章 154: CLIV: the fire

Aurora did not hear the familiar voice of the midwife as she drifted off completely. The last thing she wondered about was the fact that she might have made a mistake by swallowing the pearl. 

When she woke up, she saw the midwives still seated, two sat on the chairs in the room and the last one sat on the bed beside her.

She was shocked to find out that it was not long since she fell asleep.

"Hello," she heard that familiar voice in her head that she did not hear for a long time in this room.

She was excited as she sat up hurriedly with a smile lifting the corners of her lips. "I miss you," she told her happily without letting her lips move.

"What happened for all these while? It felt like I was chained up. I heard nothing and saw nothing. I tried you get to you but I could not. Are you alright?"
