166 Chapter 166: A brand new day (1/2)

”Freya...Freya...”

Her lips curled up subconsciously when she heard the familiar voice calling out.

Usui caught hold of Freya and wrapped her small petite body in his strong arms. His face twisted in pain when he glanced over at all her injuries starting from her shoulders to her legs. There was even blood splattered over her face making him hold her tighter.

His eyes glossed over her stomach where her hands were holding over her wound. Blood gushed out making him scream out for the healers urgently.

Everyone snapped out of their shock upon hearing Usui's shout. Julian's eyes widened before he pulled the guard and ordered him to bring the healers at once. Loki who had already arrived near Usui threw him Freya's pouch.

Usui quickly scattered all the contents to the floor and saw many tubes filled with pills. He quickly searched for the pills to stop her bleeding and fed her the pill. He let out a breath when he saw her pale complexion get some color.

He checked her wounds and saw that the bleeding has stopped. He closed his eyes in relief. God knows how scared he was when he saw the demon in him stab her. He wouldn't be able to live with his hands tainted with the blood of his woman.

His lips trembled as his shaking hands slowly moved aside her hair from her face. His eyes widened when he saw her frown before her eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly's wings before her emerald eyes gazed at him dazedly.

Instant guilt coursed through his body when he saw ease pass through her eyes.

'Why is she happy when I am the person responsible for her state?'

Freya blinked slowly as her smile gradually grew wider at the beautiful scene in front of her.

The sun has just arisen, filling the sky with shades of orange and pink. Sunlight filled the sky, pure scattered light; its hue ambitiously illuminating each crevice of the land. Freya's eyes stayed on his sunkissed face. The sun rays illuminated his handsomeness to a whole new other level leaving her mesmerized.

His messy blonde locks were shining while his deep golden brown eyes gazed at her, in worry and love making her inch closer to his warmth.

She missed him...his warmth.

Freya wondered whether she was blind before to not notice this handsome person who was willing to sacrifice his life for her, who made her his world.

Usui furrowed his brows when he saw her inch closer to his body. Assuming that she was cold, he brought her closer to his chest making her sigh in content.

”Freya... hold on for a while, the healers are on their way”

”Are you okay? she asked feebly making Usui smile.

”It's not the time to worry about me...” She saw how his eyes wandered across her injuries.

”I'm fine” she answered his unspoken question making Usui snort. She pursed her lips and said, ”I really am fine”

She could feel the pill he had made her eat taking effect. Soon, she would be able to walk without help. But she crinkled her nose when she thought of the nasty wound on her abdomen.

That would need more than her pills to heal making her purse her lips.

She frowned when her vision began to fade. She blinked rapidly trying to keep her tiredness at bay. She was utterly exhausted after exerting her powers so many times in a single night. She didn't even want to think about all the naggings she would receive once she recovers.

But before she curbs into her exhaustion, she had to say something. She had to let him know.

She could see his shoulders shaking and his face turning pale.

”What's wrong with you?” she asked worriedly in her weak voice

Usui mustered a smile as he muttered, ”It's just the backlash of letting a demon run amok.”

Freya squinted her eyes as she focused her gaze on him, ignoring her body's screams. He caressed her cheeks with the back of his hand and said, ”Sleep, Freya. They will be here soon”

Freya shook her head stubbornly making his lips curl into a small smile. Before he said anything, she raised her hands to his collar and pulled him towards her, taking him by surprise.

She saw how his eyes widened slightly as he glanced down at her hands before looking at her puzzledly. Her lips curled up as she moved closer to him making his eyebrows rise as she got closer.

When their lips connected, she felt his body stiffen making her chuckle softly. Her hands wrapped behind his neck and pulled him closer as she kissed him lovingly.

Julian gawked at her daughter who paid no heed to others since her eyes fell on that brat. Now, he was seeing her kissing him while he, who was injured heavily, was ignored.

Loki shook his head with a small smile and moved his eyes from the couple towards the girl who was sleeping soundly lying on his coat, on the ground. His eyes softened before his feet moved towards her.
