Jake spent the night beside Ophelia, watching her, not catching a wink of sleep. And when the day finally broke, her eyes flickered open. She let out a yawn and stretched her arms out like she had just woken up from a good long nap.
Jake's eyes flashed with happiness when he saw her wake up, all his fears drained away in seconds. He looked at her, his mind finally at peace.
Ophelia turned to look at Jake. She saw the soft gaze and smile and immediately became confused. What she remembered last was them fighting Minotaurs, and now she was on her bed.
"Jake? What happened?" she asked.
"You don't remember?" Jake asked.
"I remember you and Crypt fighting a Minotaur, and that's all," she said. Jake was about to tell her that nothing happened, but right the next moment, she grabbed her head, fell back to the bed, and began screaming and groaning in pain.
