If I were a human, would you still love me?

Chapter 22. Explosions.

Opera's pov:

I woke up in a bed, my head pounding in my head and limbs feeling heavy. What happened?

Suddenly, just like a flash, I remembered everything that had happened last night.

I need to get up. Iruma and Asmodeus could still be in danger!

I rubbed my eyes and looked up to see Sullivan standing over me.

"I see you are finally awake, I was getting worried. Could you tell me what happened, did the Valac family really tire you out that much?"

I sat up, my head was spinning.

"No.. I.. ugh."

I hissed again when I felt a stinging pain go trough my head.

"How about you go lay down?" Sullivan then said, looking serious, but worried.

When I didn't lay down by myself he pushed me down, pulling a blanket to my shoulders. He was waiting.

"We were invaded. I don't know by who, but someone entered Iruma's chambers. There were cloaked men with weapons storming our property. I hope I scared them off for now.

I tried to catch one too, but when I tried to see who was behind the cloak, they stabbed me with some kind of tranquilizer."

Sullivan's look darkened. "Thats not good. I can assure you the boys are fine though. They just left their chambers and are probably still playing video games on the couch. So you take it easy now, okay?"

"Im fine, I don't need rest." I replied, sitting up again.

Sullivan then looked at me with a dark smile. "Opera, when I tell you to do something, you do it without question. So I hereby command you to stay in bed till tonight."

I hissed again, laying down again.

"Go get some sleep, I'll feed the boys today." He then left, closing the door behind him.

He is going to use my kitchen again. Ugh.

Iruma's pov:

Sitting on the couch, me and Asmodeus were playing video games together.

When we started this morning, I woke up next to Asmodeus, him clamped as a brick around me. He was still sleeping.

It made me feel all kinds of nervous, having him so close to me.

Turns out we also shifted in our sleep, because our legs were entangled with each other. I was too scared to move away, however, because I didn't want to wake him up.

When he also woke up, I was pretending to be asleep, just to see what he would do.

He quickly got off me, stretching in the bed and yawning. After that he laid down next to me again, cuddling me in the process. And after a while, I think I fell asleep again.

Eventually though, I felt someone gently nudge me, waking me back up.

I don't think it has ever been so hard for me to get out of bed before, especially when it felt so nice and warm laying down with him.

I already miss his warmth around me.

but playing video games with him right now isn't bad either.

"I won again!" Asmodeus said, looking smug.

"No fair!" I said, pouting.

I let him win, again. To be honest, he sucks at this game, but I really like seeing him so happy, so I let him win from time to time.
