Lost to the Orcs (Oyeon Orcs)

Chapter Thirty Two Please

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO: PLEASE

U’snar

I’m sitting in the seat I’ve been sitting in for days. Weeks. Years. I barely get up t’ eat. If no’ for Jae, I would have probably perished by now. I can understand Irf’s grief now. Can understand wanting t’ drown myself an’ my sorrows. E’en if it is only temporary. I hate this.

Come back t’ me.

While she has slept, her belly has doubled in size. Now rounding just enough. Somehow she hasn’t withered away. Irf said it is something about the souls still being attached. She’s missed so much. So very much.

How can we do this without her?

After reading some texts, Irf disappeared. He’d said he was doing a ritual t’ bring her back an’ then, he was gone. Narod picked found the texts an’ read o’er them. When he was finished, he explained that Irf followed a tethered soul. The original t’ the body was being forced back here. But she isnnae ouers. That soul is no’ ouer mate.

What would we do? How could we survive? It would be hell touching her knowing she is no’ my mate. My sunkissed. Little Lost.

“HGH.” The choking gasp that arches her back, jerks me out o’ my thoughts. I shout for Jae. For Narod. Anyone. She settles back down.

Within minutes they come running an’ I explain what happened.

“Hold her.” Narod instructs. I sit on the bed an’ grab her. Taking her int’ my arms an’ cradle her against me. Her head lolls against my chest. I wrap my arms around her gently but firmly. I donnae want her t’ go anywhere. Jae comes forward an’ starts caressing her limbs. I kiss her shoulder. Trailing them up an’ down her neck. Caressing the mark there.

Please. Goddess. Jaeda, anyone. Please.

Her body seizes. I feel it shudder an’ try t’ leap out o’ my arms. I hold her firm but no’ bruising. She jerks an’ struggles. Her breathing erratic. Sharp. Heart beating frantically against my arms.

She makes that choking gasp sound again.

A scream is ripped from her throat like she’s being torn t’ shreds an’ then silence.

Utter silence. I stare at Jae as he stares at me, ouer faces etched in pain and horror.

She’s no’ breathing.
