Madeline’s POV

“Maddie, my love, wake up,” I heard Dimitri’s voice.

He sounded worried and I tensed up immediately. Why was he worried?

“Maddie,” he called me again and I felt his lips on my forehead. “Please, princess.”

I gulped and forced my eyes to open. I saw Dimitri’s handsome face and I smiled. I missed him. I felt like I hadn’t seen him in a while.

“Hi, princess,” he said softly and caressed my cheek. “How are you feeling?”

I sighed and furrowed my brows a little.

“Tired,” I mumbled. “How long was I asleep?”

Dimitri glanced behind him. I tried to see who it was, but he was practically lying on top of me and I couldn’t see anything.

“A few hours,” he said. “Does your head hurt?”

“A bit,” I sighed. “Is everything okay?”

Dimitri placed a hand on my forehead and frowned.

“Let me talk to her, my King,” I heard Oliver’s voice and I tried to look at him over Dimitri’s shoulder.

Why was he here?

Dimitri sighed and moved a little. He sat next to me and pulled me up so my back was pressed against his chest. He kissed my temple and wrapped his arms around me.

“Hi, Maddie,” Oliver said softly. “How are you feeling?”

I furrowed my brows a little. I looked around the room and saw that Will, Ali, and Ellie were also there. What the hell happened?

I tried to remember what I was doing before I fell asleep and…

I froze.

“Maddie?” Dimitri called me worriedly.

I looked at him and my eyes widened.

“I am sorry,” I mumbled, shaking my head. “I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to make you angry. I didn’t mean to…”

Dimitri interrupted me by pressing a soft kiss on my lips.

“I know, princess,” he mumbled. “You don’t have to apologize, okay? You didn’t do anything wrong, I did.”

Dimitri studied my face for a second.

“I talked to you about it,” he added, his voice laced with worry. “It was right before you fell asleep. You don’t remember?”

I bit my lower lip and tried my hardest to remember.

“You were sitting on the floor when I came into the room,” Dimitri said softly. “I pulled you onto my lap and I told you how sorry I was.”

Oh, I remembered that.

“I fell asleep after that,” I added and Dimitri gave me a small nod.
