--Somewhere in County X--
"Master, young master has been beaten black & blue", a young man was standing near the man who was sitting in a leather chair in a dimly lit room. The man's face was half hidden in the dark.
"Who did this?",the man growled while the young man shivered after his question.
"Master, our own...our own henchmen...henchmen beat him up."
"What did you say?"
"The young master said that all of them, including him, had suddenly fallen asleep after the girl had come to rescue her brother."
"What nonsense? Get your head checked!"
"The young master said so", the young man was on the verge of tears.😥
"Where is he?"
"In the City Hospital. The doctor said...his left leg...left leg might get paralyzed",the young man stuttered with great difficulty & fear. The man's eyes were blazing with blood-lust & viciousness.
"Get the car & book a flight immediately. I've to see him. Now!", the man roared & the young man ran out hurriedly. When he left, the man stood up from his chair & opened a drawer. He took out an old photo of a smiling girl & looked at it closely. He smirked,"Revenge is in my blood. Since your elder overstepped her boundaries, she'll have to pay her own debt along with yours." Then he shoved the photo inside & left with hurried footsteps.
--M.N.T. Housing Complex, Flat no.5--
As Ashton had said, Fiona was currently down with a splitting headache. She neither knew how she'd reached the flat nor how did she enter it. Currently, she knew that her tummy was filled with dinner & she'd a hard time falling asleep. She kept tossing & turning in her bed. At a point of time, her body began to rise its temperature. She was breathing with difficulty & her eyes were blazed. Tears welled up in her eyes. She cried out in pain,"Ashton..."
--Living Room, Witch Palace--
The final card slipped out of Ashton's hand & the whole tower of cards crashed down. Those certain people were shocked at his sudden lack of concentration. Those people were none other than Ashton's best friend, Nikhil & Hazel, Ashton's younger sister. Nikhil went abroad to study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry with Hazel 2 years back & so they were unaware of Ashton's emotional development towards Fiona.
"What's wrong bro?", Hazel called out suddenly while Ashton was staring straight at his hands with a dead serious face. Noticing his seriousness, Nikhil interrupted, "Are you worried about Fiona?"
Ashton glanced towards Nikhil,"Yes, she'd used much of her power today which she never did for the past 2 years. I'm afraid that she might have a splitting headache & even might get a high fever."
"Then, go & meet her", Hazel suggested.
"Yes",Nikhil agreed.
Ashton thought for a while & snapped his finger.
--Fiona's bedroom, Flat No.5--
As soon as Ashton stepped in her room, he found Fiona in extremely worse state. Her face was bright red & her lashes were trembling. Ashton approached her & touched her forehead with the back of his hand. She was running a high temperature! Ashton didn't waste much time & snapped his finger. An ice pack appeared & he immediately put it on her forehead. Slowly, Fiona's breathe become steady & she gently fell asleep. Beside her bed, Ashton also fell asleep due to his fatigue.
The next morning, Fiona gently opened her eyes & her eyes fell on the sleeping figure beside her bed. She was a bit stunned but a smile landed on her face. She caressed his hair & her smile got bigger. Ashton, subconsciously held her hands.

Waiting for you,
Darling, don't be afraid,
I've loved you for,
A Thousand Years...
I love you for
A Thousand more...
