Her Soul and His Blood novel Chapter 9

Zella opened her eyes. She saw Lance standing beside her and staring at her. She looked around her surroundings and realized she  is in a hospital. Her hands felt heavy, she lifted them up and saw IV is connected to one arm and blood to the other.

" what happened to me Lance? How did i reach here?"

" nothing Zella , you just passed out due to dehydration."

" where you there in the dark forest? "

" yeah I saw you laying down and I took you to the hospital."

" but you were there before. I came to see you, but you just vanished."

" you were hallucinating, because of your hangover."

Zella rubbed  her neck, " something pricked my neck."

Lance swallowed his saliva pretending to be normal like nothing had happened, which is not the reality. He was hiding something from her. She saw some blood on his lips.

" Are you injured?" Zella enquired.

" why? What happened?" said Lance

She pointed to his lip " blood"

"Ohh.. nothing I just fallen down in the forest." and wiped off the blood from his lip.

" so, why is this blood transfusion if i was

dehydrated?"

" well doctor said you were anemic too and need blood transfusion."

" what! how can it happen in a single day. I wasn't anemic till yesterday."

" well may be because you drunk."

She rolled her eyes. She couldn't believe those words at once.

'Why would Lance lie' she believed him blindly.

Lance tried to walk out but Zella held is hand suddenly a vision,

Zella gasped for her breathe,she left his hand,her eyes were widened and she is in a shock.

" what happened Zella,are you alright?" Lance tried to comfort her.

" yeah everything is fine. I started to hallucinate again, but im afraid."Zella mumbled.

He asked her keenly " what... just tell me what happened?"

" I saw you trying to kill me and you were having fangs."

He got surprised by hearing this. His eyes widened. There is something going on his head. His eyes shined like a blue ocean.

"Your eyes." She pointed.

"What ?"

"Its blue." Her lips became pale.

"Its the effect of medicine, don't worry my eyes cant change color."
