The Forgotten Heiress novel Chapter 92

"Wake up Jessica, please wake up."

Jessica walked through the thick fog following the faint voice that was calling her name. She turned in a circle to look around her and found nothing. There was nothing here, no time, no pain, no ending or beginning-nothing. As far she could see there was only fog.

"Please open your eyes, please."

There was desperation in the pleading voice that touched a similar chord deep inside of her and she picked up the pace and ran towards it. She didn't remember how she'd gotten here or why but she knew that this wasn't where she belonged. She lost track of the time she spent running, following the voice, looking for a way out when all of a sudden the fog began to clear. The voice sounded clearer, closer and as she drew near she recognized its owner.

"I can't do this without you." Nick murmured.

Jessica opened her eyes slowly.

Disoriented, she looked at Nicks down turned head for a moment before the sunlight had her cringing and closing her eyes again. With her eyes closed, she took a deep breath in an attempt to clear her mind. She had the nagging feeling that something was wrong, that she should remember something but she couldn't figure out what...

Nick was looking down at the floor when he noticed a slight movement out of the corner of his eyes. He scooted to the edge of his seat and leaned closer to the bed. Clasping one of her hands between his, he called her name and his heart soared when he felt the hand he held move just the slightest bit.

"Oh thank the moon!" Nick got up and rushed to the door "She is awake!"

Not a second later, a doctor came jogging in. He headed straight for Jessica and checked her vitals. When he was done he looked at nick and motioned for him to follow him to the door, "Everything looks good, she healed fantastically and like I said before she shouldn't have any problems conceiving again." The doctor reassured him in a hushed tone then looked at Jessica who was fully conscious and added, "I'll give you guys sometime alone but I will be back to check on you again."
