Part 65

~~~

Pinkie and Rys have reached an unknown location where in a hospital for supernatural beings resided in. Cands met them there in the entrance. They soon entered inside, no one daring to speak. The guy was the one who led them to the room where the vampire Bled was staying at.

     They entered the room.

      Rys started to cry again when she saw Bled's pathetic state.

     He looked so horrible.

     He looked so terribly beaten as he lied down there in the hospital bed, unconscious. He was barely breathing as a nurse tried to put a drop of magical potion to his barely opened lips.

      "W-w-hat happened to him?" Rys barely asked out while she stood frozen in the place.

      Cands exhaled a small amount of air, his gray eyes on the floor.

     "I do not know. I don't even know him. All I know is that maybe you know him. I saw him there on the park, bleeding, and calling out your names for several times before passing out. He was clutching his phone before he passed out. And maybe he probably have your number so..."

      He paused. Pinkie gave him an encouraging squeeze on the hand. Cands lovingly stared to his mate.

      "Do you have any idea on who did that, Cands?" Pinkie asked her mate.

Cands only shook in reply to that question. He only saw the vampire after all. Although Cands was confused on why Rys looked so deeply affected for what happened.

       Like deeply affected. Like Rys was acting as if her mate was hurt, not just some random person or friend.

       Rys sniffed. Oh, God...is this the witch's work? Or is this what the witch awhile ago trying to inform me?

       My mates...fighting each other because of me?!

       But...

      "Are you his mate, miss?" She got ripped out from her daze when the nurse called out her attention. Immediately, she nodded, feeling also ashamed for letting Bled be beaten like this.

       The nurse stared at her for awhile, trying to determine if what she was telling was the truth. Soon, the nurse exhaled and spoke softly.

      "Okay, good. You are clearly his mate."

      Rys wiped her tears away. So...is this nurse supposed to be a lie-detector? The girl shook her head, trying to erase all her ridiculous thoughts.

      "So... is he good now?" The black haired girl asked, hesitating at first. She was kind of scared to ask that question because what if Bled was not alright?! What if he was in a dangerous state?

      The nurse, unfortunately, shook her head. "No. I may be a witch, but my powers are not strong enough to make recover him from his wounds easily. It will take a lot of time for him to be back to himself again."

      Rys felt like fainting when she heard that.

      "And he is so lucky to be brought here immediately. He would have died when he was treated later. Also, I'm sorry to inform you that..."

     But Rys felt more worse when the witch continued.

     "..he won't wake up for a while now. But do not worry, miss, he's not yet dead." Rys began to sob. He was in a coma? But that was just the same with him being dead. She won't feel his love for the next days ahead.

      She felt the witch tap her on the shoulder as if telling her that everything would be alright.

      But no... it's not.

     "Aren't there any people here in this hospital that could cure him up?!" Pinkie asked the woman.

      Sadly, the nurse shook her head. "No, ma'am, no one. Our most powerful witch doctor was currently in abroad, taking care of some things."

      "Ah, sh*t..." Pinkie swore. Cands meanwhile continued to glance at the girl with no expression. Pinkie noticed that, but she ignored it. Cands must have been shocked to hear that Bled was another mate of Rys.

      "Could I go to him?" Rys softly asked the witch, wanting to have a closer glimpse of her vampire mate.

      "Why, of course, miss?" The nurse made way for the crying human girl. Rys gulped her saliva before continuing on to the vampire.

       Once reaching the bed, she put a hand on his cold white cheek, immediately feeling the spark. She teared up again, but this time she stopped the tears from falling.

      Oh, God. Who the hell would do this to him?

      She stared at him for a little longer before looking up to her friends. Pinkie sent her a small smile. Yet Rys could see that it was forged.

       Rys nodded at her and focused her attention again to Bled. Oh her stupid vampire... he still looked handsome even though- She stroked his cheek in a very gentle manner. Her heart breaking in every stroke.

        Oh God...

      She took a seat on the side of the bed and rested her head on his chest. Rys let out a sigh upon hearing the slow beating of his heart.

     The witchy nurse first left the room and sooner, Cands and Pinkie left too. Upon knowing that Rys needs time with her unconscious mate.

       "So..." As soon as Cands and Pinkie were outside, Cands was the first one to break the silence. "So, she also got another mate."

        Pinkie nodded. "Yeah, but it's not only him and the werewolf. There are also three others."

        "Three others," Cands echoed. He was a bit shock at the revelation. Rys?! Having five mates?! He never knew that at all.. She must be depressed now on having of one of her mates being hospitalized, and there was also a huge chance that one of her mates was behind this.

         "Poor Rys," the blonde haired girl muttered before resting her back on the clean white wall. Cands glanced at her mate. His eyes then falling down to his small hand. Without a second thought, he grabbed and squeezed it.

     "She will be alright because she have us with her." Cands gave her a sweet look on which Pinkie smiled, feeling a bit better now.

       Right, she thought.

Meanwhile...

"Oh, you are so dead, Pars. Who told you to trade that body of yours with that demon?! Are you stupid? You know demons are dangerous! They can manipulate you, an-and they are very clever!"

     Theresa huffed out after hitting her adopted grandson in the head. But as expected, Pars only laughed in a very crazy manner.

     "Oh. Oh, my old hag, haha! I'm not so stupid. I'm very clever, and you, being my grandma, should know that! Just using the demon's weakness and taadaa! You are able to trick them!" Theresa only snorted at his statements, but she let him continue.

      "Oh, grandma! Can't you believe it?! I used your mirror of fate on this demon, and it worked! He saw her mate-although I didn't see who's the person-and he was so desperate to escape hell for him to see his mate in personal. He was so desperate that he gave me his body for mine." And then he let out a laugh again. He then twirled around for his grandma to take in his appearance.

      Black hair. Black eyes. Very pale white skin. Devilish handsome features. It was a sign that the body was really owned by a demon. Thank goodness that it was his son who was possessing it or else the angels from the sky above have captured that body already. Demon bodies were very strong and hard to destroy, so it was the reason on why Pars was very proud of having to possess this kind of body.

      "Yeah, yeah, yeah. Congrats, Pars. This body is nice, but your past bod-" and the old witch was interrupted. Pars let out a hand.

      "That former body of mine sucks! I wonder if that stupid demon is regretting already for trading his body with mine."

       The old woman sighed. Sometimes she regrets on adopting him but then, Pars is the only one who could make her forget her horrible past memories.

     "Actually~ your former body is in your room." Pointing to the room where Bled had once stayed in, Theresa informed. Pars instantly frowned.

      "Oh, and what's with it?"

      Theresa clasped her hands together. "I want you to go back to your body right now... I know that being in that body feels very powerful, but I wo-"

      "Oh, no. No. No. No. No. Old hag, I won't go back to that piece of cr*p.!" Theresa slapped her forehead.

     "Pars," she said in a reprimanding tone.

      Pars sticked out his tongue in a childish way. "No."

      Oh God. Now, this was not what Theresa wanted to happen. Pars was so comfy now in that demon body that he was not willing to return back to his original form.

     As they both argued, Tyre entered the living room. Scratching his left eye. But he dropped his hand down when he was faced with the pair arguing.

       "Uh." Looking at the stranger's from, he turned cautious. Both of the arguing turned to him when he made a sound.

       "Oh, Tyre." The old woman sent the werewolf a sickening grin. The stranger meanwhile gave him curious looks. Tyre licked his lips.

       "Uh." He stepped back when the stranger stepped forward. Tyre was still unsure of what was this being. Was he a witch or a-

        -demon?

        Pars chuckled at the pup. "Haha, so your name is Tyre, huh? Oh, don't worry; I'm not those stupid demons. I'm a witch, just like her."

      He wrapped a hand around Theresa's shoulder. She grimaced. Geez, this grand son of hers...

      "Um, okay. I'm Tyre and-"

     "-and you're a hired caretaker of this old hag!" Pars grinned. The brown haired raised his eyebrow. Theresa scoffed at what he said.

      "Not really. I'm a guest." Tyre finally chuckled and commented honestly, "Oh also, I like your personality."

        Theresa rolled her eyes. "Personality, pup? His personality is even more worse than mine and yours."

         Pars patted his grandma's hair and laughed. "Oh, grandma~ this is one of the reasons on why I love you so much ❤."

         "Tsk."

         Tyre chuckled. Now~ he never knew that this grumpy old woman got this awesome person as his grandson. He could clearly see that Pars and him would be the greatest buddies...

       But the fun had ended when someone decided to barge in the house.

       And it was Hash.

       A Hash who looked like that he just came from a mess.

      "Oh, Theresa, please help me!" He cried out in a very desperate manner. He looked restless, his dark blue eyes were darting everywhere as if he was scared of being caught.

      It was just short, but Tyre noticed that Theresa's lips twitched. As though that she expected this to happen.

      Tyre's eyes widened.

      Is it possible that Bled's brother did that to him?
