Crumbling World

Chapter 20

 

Jareth and Sarah appeared in the healer’s room, he laid her on the bed, and he started looking around for the healer. The healer came out from behind the curtain in front of them, he looked down at Sarah.

“What happened to her sire?” he asked fearful

“She had a miscarriage, maybe you can try to heal her pain” Jareth said

The healer ran his hands over Sarah’s stomach, who was lying there with her eyes closed, but you could clearly see the pain all over her face.

As the healer ran his hands gently over her stomach, she could feel the pain fading away. She fell into a painless sleep, Jareth watched scared.

“What did you do to her?”

“I put her to sleep, she will have no more pain sire” the healer told him

Jareth looked down at Sarah; he brushed her hair out of her face and kissed her forehead.

The healer watched in amazement and noticed the changes in him, he seemed to really love the queen and it showed.

“Uh... sire you can take her back to your room if you would like” the healer said

Jareth smiled at him, he picked Sarah up in his arms and they disappeared.

They reappeared in their chambers, he laid her gently on the bed, and he lay down next to her.

“Jareth” she whispered

“I’m right here precious” he whispered back

She opened her eyes slowly, she turned her head to look at him, he was lying on his side facing her, she gently caressed the side of his face with her fingers, and she smiled gently at him.

Her face then turned sad “I lost our baby”

He held her and whispered in her hair “don’t worry about it there will be others we will have my queen”

She smiled into his chest, he held her until she fell asleep in his arms, he then joined her in sleep with a smile on his face, he is glad things are back to the way they were.
