The Emperor who loves me dearly - Chapter 43

A/N: This happened AFTER Adam was already taken away.

“Celie, Celie!” Ted’s been shaking the lady laying straight on the floor.

His house is a mess! The doors are broken, furniture damaged or destroyed. Adam is gone and Celestia is on the floor, lifelessly lying down!

If he’s not a doctor, he’s probably panicking right now and maybe even fainted at the sight.

Ted is getting worried because Celestia is not waking up, he tried to check if she’s taken any drugs or smelled some of it but it doesn’t look like that, more like a tranquilizer and a sleeping pills specifically Temazepam.

He carried Celestia upstairs, he does not know when did this happen, it’s been four days and he only returned now.

“Argh, Hmm, T-T-Ted?” her voice is far from her usual sweet one, it’s hoarse and dry.

“Celie, I’m here, wait let me get you a glass of water” he gets up from her bedside but Celestia held his hands.

“A-Adam? Where is h-he?” her weak state still inquired.

Ted hesitated for a moment before finally answering Celestia.

“I don’t know, he is nowhere to be found, what exactly happened here?” he softly said, holding his best friend’s hair. stroking it gently.

Celestia froze, it really did happen! Not a nightmare but a reality.

Ted notices that her eyes are not brimming with its usual spark, it’s hollow and dead.

“A-Ada-m, he’s g-go-gone! Ted,” her voice cracked and her face paled. Tears started to form on her face, drips of water started falling down from her eyes as she recalls everything, how that men wearing black suits dragged him out.

What if those people are the ones who shot him in the first place? What if they killed him?

Her heart ached as her mind played thousands of scenarios.

She prayed and hope that he is in good hands, she will get him once she’s better.

As for now, let her grieved for the love she lost.
