Daniel POV

The next day Luka and I headed over to the hospital.

Before I opened the door to Hope's room, I turned to Luka.

"Wait here I'll talk to her then call you in."

"Sure."

I walked and saw Hope was looking out the window longingly. She didn't hear me when I walked in so she jumped a little when she saw me.

"Daniel." She whispered.

I smiled and walked over to her bed and sat on the chair.

"Hello sweetheart, how are you feeling?"

She just shrugged her shoulders. I guess not too good. I reached and gently cupped her cheek.

"Did you sleep well?" I asked while rubbing the purple bags under her eyes.

"I want to leave." She said completely dodging my question.

"Where do you want to go?"

"...Home."

"And where is that?"

Does she remember her home? Mom? Dad? Siblings? I couldn't help but feel sad. Does she want to leave me? I didn't want Hope to be taken away but I know she needs her family after being separated from them for 10 years.

"With you and Blake."

I froze in shock then felt the tears build up in my eyes. I was so happy. She wanted to stay with us. Before I could stop myself, I leaned towards her and pressed my lips to hers. Her lips were so soft. The kiss was sweet and chaste.

When I pulled back I couldn't help but chuckle at her dazed expression.

"Hope I brought my friend to meet you today. His name is Luka. He is a very nice man who wouldn't dream of hurting you so you don't need to be scared. Alright?"

She gave me a hesitant nod.
I called for Luka and he slowly walked into the room.

"Hello, Hope. I'm Luka. It's a pleasure to finally meet you."

"Hi."

I was a bit surprised she responded, I wasn't expecting her to say anything.

"Hope, Luka and I need your help."

She cutely tilted her head a bit with a questioning look on her face.

"Remember I told you about the hunters."

"Master?"

I heard Luka let out a deep but quiet growl.

"Yes. We need to know where they are so we can stop them from hurting us. You are the only one who knows where they are."

She started to tremble and squeezed my hands.

"I-I don't want to go back."

"I'll never let them have you. We just want to take you where I found you and point in the direction you came from, that's all. We are not even going to go to the base. We just need a direction."

She had a thoughtful look on her face for a few minutes.

"Ok."

I let out a relieved sigh and kissed her forehead. Luka had a big smile on his face.

"Thank you so much. You really are an angel."

A few days later, Luka and I headed over to the hospital to pick up Hope. When we arrived, I had a quick talk with Jacques.
