Celia sat on a tree branch after Aria asked her to leave. She was too scared to return to the others without her, yet she lacked the courage to follow her to search for the boar. She was always a poor judge to think Aria could be like other kids when she has obviously been different from the start.
“Indeed she belonged to a different world. Why will she go after a boar? What if it hurt her?” she shouted, and she instantly became worried.
If anything happens to Aria, she will be held responsible because there was no way Aria can beat a boar.
“No, she has her bodyguard, she will be fine,” she grumbled against her thoughts.
She sat under the tree deep in thoughts and started feeling unease. She couldn’t contain her fear so she decided to go after Aria and persuaded her against her however way she can.
She search around and was almost getting lost when she saw Aria’s footprints and started following it. She traced it for a while but it doesn’t seem to be leading her anywhere until she was Diego lying on the ground.
“What? Were they attacked by the boar?” she gasped.
She rushed to Diego already panicking and he was fighting to keep his eyes opened.
“Diego, are you ok? What happened? Where is Aria?” she panicked.
“Little lady…” he slurred, struggling to talk and handed his gun to her.
“What’s this? What should I do with this? I can’t even fire it!” she yelled.
“Save…” he whispered, pointing ahead until he passed out.
“Diego! Open your eyes. We have to save Aria. I can’t even use this,” she cried.
She wiped off her tears and gathered her courage at the thought that something bad might have happened to Aria.
She followed the direction that Diego pointed at and walked deeper into the woods in fear until she saw the man aiming his gun at Aria.
“Aria!” she shouted, and subconsciously fired the gun.
Her hands trembled the moment she realized what she has done, and she suddenly felt out of breath when the man collapsed to the ground.
“Celia!” Aria shouted, running to her.
“No, I shot him. No, no, he is d£ad!” she whispered, trembling, before collapsing, hitting her head hard on a rock.
“Celia!” she heard Aria shouting, before passed out.

Jake eyes was glued on the wall-clock until the time ticks 6PM, and he stood up to carry out Lord Dom’s ordered.

FLASHBACK BACK***
*
Jake bowed his head to receive the special order from Lord Dom.
“Bianca has a plan, we both know, and she also knows that I’m aware. She is not stupld but she will give it her all. We’re both going against each other with different strategies so we can’t guarantee the winner beforehand. I’ll give you a order by 6PM, if I don’t, rush down to the hunting range, that means I lost,”
“Yes, boss. I’ll await your order,”
*

FLASHBACK ENDS***
*
Jake gathered some of thier men together and they arrived in the hunting range surprised to see all their men on the ground, including Bianca.
He searched around for Lord Dom and Aria until he found Lord Dom in the woods.
“Boss!” he shouted, and rushed to Lord Dom, hitting him vigorously, “Get the doctor! Now!” he shouted, “Boss!”
He ordered one of the men with him to stay with Lord Dom till the doctor arrives, and assigned Dee others to join him in search of Aria.
They dispatch into the woods searching around for Aria.
“Little lady! Lady Aria!” he shouted, searching for her.
He searched for her and started tracing the small footprints on the ground . He traced it for a while when he sight Diego lying unconscious like the others.
“Diego!” he shouted, and started looking around for Aria.
He tried to trace her footprints when he heard a boar grunt and his eyes widened in shock.
“Little lady!” he shouted, and headed to the direction.
He got there on time and was able to shoot the boar that was aiming at Aria. After firing many bullets at the boar, he rushed to Aria.
“Little lady, are you alright?” he asked, checking her body.
“I’m fine, but Celia isn’t…” she cried, and that was when he saw Celia there, lying in the pool of blood.
“She already lost a lot of blood, we can’t save her. Let’s go. It’s dangerous to stay here,”
“No! I won’t leave without Celia! We have to get her to the hospital,”
“Alright. I’ll get the doctor to check on her, but we have leave first,”
“I won’t leave without Celia! Go get the doctor, I’ll wait here!”
He clenched his fists trying to keep calm, “Little lady,”
“What if another boar comes? I won’t leave without her!”
*
Jake removed his shirt and tied it around Celia’s head to stop the bleeding before he carried her on his shoulder and held Aria’s hand, finding their way out of the woods.
They successfully find their way out and didn’t find anyone on the ground.
“Is the doctor here?” he asked.
“Yes. Boss and the others have been attended to,”
“Get a shelter for the little lady,”
“No. Celia is the patient here. She’s bleeding, we need to get the doctor. Hurry! Make the call,”Aria shouted.
“Do as she said,” Jake muttered.
*
The doctor attended to Celia and they were all rushed back home.
“Doctor, what happened?” Jake asked.
“They were all drugged. We detected traces of Somnex in their system. It’s a sedative that cause deep sleep for several hours and it effect prevails after few hours of intake,”
“And it was found in everyone?”
“Yes,”
“That’s not possible,”
“It’s possible that was added in a drink they all had. But… the sedative found in the boss was different,”
“What do you mean?”
“After running a test, we detected Velorin, a powerful sedative. It can cause a lot of neurological problems like memory loss and dizziness, and in high doses, it may lead to unconsciousness. It is likely he had previously been injected with this sedative before receiving another dose,”
“Injected?”
“The sedative was injected in him,” she said, and showed him the mark in the test result.
“Thank you,”
“And the lady…”
“What about Lady Bianca?”
“Not her. The other lady that lost a lot of blood,”
“What about her?”
“She lost a lot of blood and we need more blood. We already run out of blood and I contacted the hospital but I’m to get any response. Her blood type is—“
“That’s enough. Just focus on the boss and little lady,”
“About little lady, she refuse to allow me attend to her, she has been in that lady room,”
**
Lord Dom opened his eyes and scanned his environment. The last thing he remembered was shooting birds with Aria, he couldn’t remember anything that happened after that.
He sat up immediately and pulled out the IV drip when Jake entered the room.
“Boss, you’re awake,”
“Where’s Aria? What happened?”
“I also don’t understand, boss,”
“Just tell me what you know!” he snapped.
**
Lord Dom went to the room Celia was receiving treatment and met Aria there in tears, startling him— he couldn’t remember the last time she cried.
“Aria,” he called, making his presence known.
“Daddy, Celia is going to dle because of me. Jossy (her former nanny) has a heat condition because of me, now Celia will dle because of me. Because I wanted to get the boar….”she cried.
He let out a sigh and bend down to her level to embrace her.
“She won’t dle because of you. Jossy didn’t have that heart condition because of you,”
“No. It was because of me. Jossy couldn’t receive adequate treatment because she was my nanny, and Celia got hurt because I wanted the boar…”
“Then I’ll save her just as I sent Jossy to the best hospital to get treatment, I’ll save Celia as well,”
“Really? You will?” she asked, wiping off her tears.
“I’ll speak to the doctor. You know I always keep my promise,” he said, and she nodded, “Go and get some rest, I’ll only be able to save Celia if you relax because I can’t do anything if you’re restless. Ok?” he said, and she nodded.
He gestured Jake to take her away and he went to the doctor to ask after Celia’s health.
“Get the blood. If you have to rake all the hospitals in New York or the world to get it, you’ve to get it. And save her,”
“Yes, sir. I already requested for the blood, and it will be delivered but we don’t have enough time. She can barely hang in there for less than 30 minutes, I’m afraid that the blood won’t arrive on time,”
“I’ll send a helicopter to fetch them,”
“Sir, I understand your intent to save her, but we can’t wait any longer. We can only save her if we can get a donor,”
“Good. I’ll have all the men run a test. What’s her blood type?”
“It’s a rare type, sir— O negative. That’s why we’ve to reach out to a distant hospital to get it,”
“How much time do you say we have?”
“Less than 30 minutes,”
“I’ll get a donor before then,”
*
He summoned Jake over to his office, and Jake joined him almost immediately.
“How is Aria?”
“She is already asleep,”
“Good. I want you to check the files of all our men— ones here and nearby. We need a blood type O negative,”
“O negative?”
“It’s rare and it’s needed in less than 30 minutes. That’s the time limit to save Celia, I already made a promise to Aria,”
After a few minutes of searching, they summoned one of the Caroon in a nearby clubhouse, and dispatched a helicopter to pick him up.
The doctor ran tests on him but he wasn’t a fit donor because had hepatitis B.
“What? How can he be so useless?! Trip him off all his positions, and send him to the countryside!” Lord Dom yelled after getting the report of the test.
“Yes, boss. Boss, the doctor…”
“I get it! I get it! Get out!”
*
He went out to meet the doctor who looked worried.
“Sir…”
“Do we still have time?” he asked.
“If we can’t a donor immedia—“
“I’ll save her. My blood type is compatible. Rum the tests and let’s save her,” he said, and the doctor’s face brightened.
All the test confirmed that he was healthy, and he donated his blood.
After the blood transfusion was completed, he stood by her bedside against the doctor’s wish.
“Boss, the doctor assured us that she will be fine. You need to get rest,”
“Go to Aria,”
“Yes, boss,”
Jake gave him a last look before leaving
“My blood now runs in your vein little thing so you must wake up and pay the price,” he muttered, looking at her.
He was about to leave when he saw her move her fingers, and she opened her eyes, gradually.
“Are we ok?” he found himself asking.
“Mr. Dragon…” she slurred looking, and he instantly remembered her calling him that on her first day.
“Are you ok?” he asked again, and she shook her head.
“I’m not ok…” she slurred, holding his hand
The feeling of her hand on his, her response to his question triggered his memories. He has met her somewhere, and it’s all related to the memories he lost.
“I’m not ok…” he remembered the voice said, ringing on his head, and he jabbed her hand away running of out the room to catch his breath.
