Chapter 588 - Five Hundred And Eighty-Eight: Niklaus Was Alive

The third point of view:

Reina couldn't tell the number of times she slipped in and out of consciousness. But at last, her eyes snapped open and all she saw was a white ceiling while the smell of disinfectant stung her nose. She had to be in the hospital, there was nowhere else with that smell.

At first, her mind was blank, and then suddenly, memories upon memories flooded her memories. She sat up with a gasp, "Niklaus!"

The next, she was on her feet and ripping the wires out of her body when an arm wrapped around her waist saying, "Reina, please calm down!"

She recognized that voice as Judy's and her anger mixed with panic gave her a boost of adrenaline with which she used to hit Judy at the stomach with her elbow before headbutting her.

Judy groaned in pain, letting go at once. He didn't know where to cradle, his throbbing stomach or bleeding stomach? He could feel the pain all over.

"Reina calm down!" Emily was the next to hold her down and she learned from her fiancé's mistake, leaving nobody part vulnerable for Reina to attack.

"I need Niklaus!" She screamed, "Where is Niklaus?! Give me Niklaus!"

"He would be here soon," Emily said while striving to keep her under control - she wondered how she got that much strength.

"Liars! I know you are all lying! You are all trying to deceive me!" Reina refused to believe her. She knew something happened to Niklaus and they were trying to hide it from her. She had to see Niklaus.

At once, the doors burst open with a train of Doctors in their white coats accompanied by the nurses rushing into the room.

Reina, noticing their arrival, tried to make a last-minute escape but she was overpowered and the next she knew, a syringe had been injected into her neck.

"No, I want Niklaus!" She struggled even though she felt herself begin to weaken, "Don't lie to me... I just want to see him...."

And all it took was a minute for her world to turn dark again.

"We can't continue like this. Right now, she's emotionally unstable and might put the babies in her danger. Right now, I suggest you bring her husband to her no matter the condition he's in,"

"How long will the drug last?" Judy asked, running his hand through his hair. This was all his fault, he was the one supposed to be in Nik's condition.

"Three hours," The doctor said.

Three hours? He prayed Damon was up before then.

Reina had a lot of dreams and each of them seem to be taunting her, as they seem to merge with her last meeting with Niklaus.

"What about you?" She had asked him and it was the same reply in the dream.

"Nothing will happen to me. I'll be fine, alright? You're carrying my babies and this time, I'm going to watch them grow up. It's a promise," and then he kissed her.

Niklaus was eager to leave and the instant he opened the door, she saw it. There was a monster at the door; a dark, shapeless evil. She tried to warn him but all of his attention was on her and had his back turned to the monster.

He was smiling at her and lifted his hand to blow a kiss at her as the monster drew close. A tear slipped down her cheek as she watched the monster opened its wide shapeless jaw and the darkness swallowed Niklaus right in front of her. She screamed in horror.

Reina woke up a little drowsy and was weak all over. What the hell did these people give her?

Oh right, Niklaus.

She was just about to sit up and continue her search when her eyes fell on the figure by her side.

"N-Niklaus?" she croaked, her throat dry.?Niklaus was by her side and she was relieved.

"Yeah, it's me, baby," He murmured, smiling down at her. Even his voice was real. Wow, her imagination skills have increased top-notch.

Reina smiled back, "Thank God my imagination is quite strong this time,"

"It's not a dream," Niklaus said to her, his brows furrowed in displeasure.

Reina sighed, fighting against the drowsiness - it seems it wasn't time for her to wake.

"And now, the conjured you is lying to me as well," Why was everyone lying to her? Was there an award for that?

"Fine, you should have a rest. You need it and the babies need it as well. We'd see again once you're up," Niklaus said to her.

She shook her head stubbornly, "No, I don't want to sleep knowing you won't be there when I wake again. I'm not confident I might conjure an imagination this strong once more,"

Niklaus took her hand in hers, "I'll be here when you wake. I promise,"

She murmured, "You failed your previous promise,"

"I didn't - I am here - and won't fail this time as well. So go to sleep,"

"I am here," played in a loop in Reina's mind as she closed her eyes and lost to unconscious once again.

"Niklaus?!" Reina woke with a start, her heart pounding in her throat. She could feel it deep down in her bones, Niklaus was here. However, when she looked across the room, it was just Judy, Emily, Cecil, Camille, and Emerald.

"Where is he?" it came out as a whisper because she was scared. Reina was scared that the news she dreaded, was about to be delivered to her. Her hands went to her stomach, she had to be strong for her baby.

"I'll tell you but please, promise me you'd be calm?" Judy said to her, gauging her reaction.

"Okay," she nodded.

At once, Judy made a sign and the door was opened as Eden wheeled in Niklaus.

Her eyes widened, not because her husband was confined to a wheelchair but the shock of seeing him alive. Niklaus was alive, that was all that mattered.
