Chapter 23 Raven Wakes Up
Kie's face lit up, his fingers intertwining with mine. "Raven, my love, you're awake!"
My eyes widened as I took in my surroundings, my gaze scanning the room, taking in Sam, Brent, Lyra, Lucas, Bella, and Scuttlebutt, all watching me with hope and excitement.
And then, in a moment that left everyone breathless, I sat up. I looked at Kie, and my eyes blazed with fierce determination. "Kie, Shade is coming after Bella!" still weak from my coma and unable to determine what was a dream and what was reality.
"Not if I have anything to say about it." he helped me to lie back down, "You're all safe now, I won't let him anywhere near any of you."
"Daddy, watch!" Bella exclaimed, with a wave of her small hand, she spoke in an ancient language, as an energy dome grew until it engulfed the entire house with a shield of protection.
Kie's eyes widened in amazement. I smiled weakly, pride shining in my eyes. "She's powerful, Kie," I whispered as I laid my head back down.
