Day Fourteen…
~~*****~~
With the help of Kathleen and Stephen, Abigail was able to stay by Nathan's side last night. She didn't leave Nathan inside his private ward.
After being treated at the nearest hospital, Nathan was transferred to the prestigious hospital in Country F where Phantomflake was also being examined.
Kathleen made Veronica drink a sleeping pill causing her to sleep soundly while watching over Nathan. She brought Veronica back to the hotel so that Abigail could have private time alone with Nathan.
Stephen, on the other hand, got busy investigating what happened in the Royal Night Club men's comfort room. He needed to find out who was the culprit who hurt his best friend.
He wondered if the culprit was related to Syphiruz Mafia's opposing factions or a person whom Nathan had offended in the business world.
Stephen didn't sleep last night as he was preoccupied with this case. He already informed Nathan's assistant and right-hand man, Axel about what happened. Aiden also heard the news. Aiden and Axel would go to the Country F together first thing today!
The Syphiruz Mafia was also on high alert after receiving the news that their Supreme Leader was attacked. They wouldn't sit back. They had to find the culprit and what was the real motive for attacking Nathan.
Meanwhile, Abigail woke up at dawn. She fell asleep without knowing. By the time she opened her eyes, it was already 3:40 am. Nathan was still sleeping. He hasn't regained consciousness yet after his operation.
Abigail stood up from the couch and traced her steps towards Nathan's sick bed. She didn't know if she felt glad or not that Nathan survived.
She was staring intently at his sleeping figure when Bam-Bam appeared once more. Abigail grabbed his one leg right away, not allowing the flying creature to escape from her grasp.
"Bam-Bam! Now explain to me what had just happened out there!" Abigail demanded. "Why did I feel his pain?"
Bam-Bam just scratched his face using his paw and he smiled sheepishly at her. Abigail had already seen this kind of smile before. She glared at him and tightened her grip on his right leg.
"Awww! You are gripping my leg too tightly, Master," Bam-Bam complained with his teary-eyed look.
However, Abigail just ignored him and didn't buy his word. He was a magical creature. He wouldn't be hurt that easily.
"Don't give me that silly look, Bam-Bam. I want you to explain the strange occurrence last night!" Abigail looked frightening as she demanded answers. She had a feeling that this magical creature knew something she didn't know.
"Okay. I'll confess the truth. Just let go of my leg first, Miss Beautiful," Bam-Bam negotiated, trying to act cute in front of her.
Abigail pursed her lips as she looked at him suspiciously. "What if you will try to escape? Just tell me now!"
"But please don't get mad at me. Promise?" Bam-Bam flashed his doe-like eyes, trying to win her with his charms.
Abigail just bobbed her head. She would restrain herself from getting mad as long as she could hear a proper explanation for that strange phenomenon!
Bam-Bam heaved a sigh of relief when Abigail promised not to get mad. He decided to be frank and honest with her.
"The truth is… I used a spell to bind your souls together… your soul and Nathan's soul!" he confessed.
Abigail's eyes widened at that remark. "What?! Why did you do that?!"
"Ahem… Sorry. I have to do it. Remember what I've told you before? The restrictions I've mentioned to you."
"What restrictions?" Abigail asked him expectantly as her mind was not working right now. She couldn't remember the exact words he said.
"You couldn't kill Nathan Sparks using Abigail Scarlett. You must not touch Nathan's body to hurt him… because I bound your soul to him with his blood. Whenever he would shed blood, you would also get hurt and feel his pain just like what happened last night. At that time, I had to bind your souls because I was afraid that you would break the rule and do something bad against Nathan Sparks."
Abigail couldn't believe this flying creature! She had the urge to squeeze him tightly around her arms and pinched his fluffy cheeks so hard. She felt betrayed. This creature was calling her Master but he was more concerned about Nathan's safety than hers.
"Unbind our souls, NOW!" Abigail commanded, catching the cheeks of the poor creature. She pinched Bam-Bam's cheeks tightly.
"AWW! Master, not my face." Bam-Bam pleaded.
"Remove the binding spell first! This guy is a dangerous person and many people will try to attack and assassinate him. Are you planning to make me suffer too every time he will be targeted by his enemies?! Why are you doing this to me, Bam-Bam?!"
Bam-Bam put his paws together, rubbing them in front of Abigail as he apologized. "Okay. Master… Let go of my cheeks first. Then I will tell you how you can unbind your souls!"
Abigail released Bam-Bam's poor cheeks as she waited for him to say the solution on how she can unbind their souls. She would also be in trouble if Nathan would be targeted by opposing factions. She knew that Nathan had lots of enemies. When it came to this, she didn't want to be involved.
In the future, once she succeeded in returning to her original body, she would also be the first one who would try to eliminate Nathan Sparks. A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye!
On the other hand, Bam-Bam maintained his distance from Abigail as he was already planning to escape after telling her how to unbind Nathan's and Abigail's souls.
"Master, there is a simple way to do this. The only thing you have to do is… to KISS Nathan on his lips!" Bam-Bam said, his eyes glimmering with humor.
Abigail: "..."
"Just kiss him for one minute and you will be able to break the spell, just like how the prince charming broke the curse after kissing the sleeping beauty!" Bam-Bam didn't wait for Abigail's response as he snapped his fingers to disappear from Abigail's sight! Bam-Bam escaped!
"BAM-BAM!!!"
