Chapter 241 - : Accident (2)

I lean my whole body to the wall and control my breathing. I cannot let this person know that I am here.

Even though I have knowledge of fighting, I don't think I can defend myself with my current injury. It will be futile to fight. I might just end up dying if I push it. So, I decided to minimize my existence. He cannot know I am here.

I heard some movements from the other side. He is probably getting up. After a few seconds, I heard him grunt. I think he is hurt too. After all, ten feet is no joke. 

Does it mean I have an opportunity to get out of here unscathed?

The man mumbled something, but I couldn't comprehend his words. I don't know if it's because he said it too softly or because I feel dizzy. I'm not even sure if I bump my head on anything earlier.

I heard movements again from the man. I frown and prepare myself in case he attacked me or something. I feel him walk around. He is probably observing his surroundings.

I also move every time he does. I even ensure sure that my movements won't be heard. 

A moment later, the man stopped moving. I just heard he is touching something. It sounds like a metal. After a few seconds, a lamp lights the whole place. My eyes immediately widened, and I put up my defensive stance.

However, I immediately froze when I recognized the person. Even he is shocked when he sees me.

"Csille?"

What is happening? Why is Prince Fraser here with me? He is supposed to be with Princess Paislee. So, what is he doing here?

I slumped my body on the ground. I don't understand why it is happening. All I know is, this definitely mess up the storyline. 

This is supposedly one of the crucial parts of Prince Fraser's relationship with Princess Paislee. Now that it is not happening, what will happen next?

Prince Fraser should start to realize the attraction he feels for Princess Paislee because of this scene. Although he will deny that attraction, it is still an important scene in the novel. 

"Csille, are you okay?" 

Prince Fraser tries to come closer to me, but I immediately raise my hand at him to stop him. 

No! I don't want to be close to him. I don't want this. I need to get out of this place as soon as possible. I cannot stay here with Prince Fraser. I need to go.

"Don't come near me!" I snap at him.

I abruptly stand up and try to find a way out, but no matter what I do I couldn't get out. I wince in pain when I feel my arm ache. 

Prince Fraser immediately walked towards me and checked my arms. "You have a broken arm. You shouldn't move it too much—"

I didn't know if it's because of the frustration I am feeling or because of the helplessness I feel that I end up pushing Prince Fraser away. 

He probably didn't expect I would push him, so he ends up falling on the ground. I lean my body on the wall and silently cry. 

I don't know why I am crying, and no matter how much I stop it, the tears won't stop falling. My mind is in total chaos right now. 

I hear Prince Fraser grunts and curses. He probably got hurt when I pushed him. 

"Csille? Are you okay?"

I squeezed myself to the wall. I don't know what is happening, but a warning in my mind keeps reminding me that I shouldn't let Prince Fraser get close to me. 

"Don't come. I beg you, please don't come near me." 

I didn't hear anything from him after. All I could hear was the unwanted sobs that were coming from me.

My thoughts and emotions are still in chaos. I didn't know what to do or what to feel, so I just squeezed myself to the wall. 

I also thank Prince Fraser for respecting my space. He really didn't come near me. He just remained silent while I was crying my heart out.

After a few moments of calming myself down, I looked up and found Prince Fraser sleeping. He's a few steps away from me. He really made sure that he was nowhere near me. 

Prince Fraser, why do you need to be like this? That makes it more difficult not to fall for you.

I sigh. I look around, hoping to find something we can use to leave this place. However, there's really nothing that we can use here. There are only stones, the lamp that is hanging on the wall, and nothing else. 

We can only get out of this hole if the hunters check this trap. They are the only ones who can open the trap without falling into it. 

I look at Prince Fraser again. I don't understand what he is doing here. I already made sure I took the opposite route, so how come he ends up here? 

Is it because of that unknown force? But why would it want this to happen? Does it want to destroy this world?

I look at my arm. I tried to move my arm, but I only ended up wincing because of the pain. I really need to do something with this arm. I removed my outer dress to also check the wound on my abdomen, and I grimaced when I saw how deep the wound was. It's as if something stabbed me. 

I rip the hem of my outer dress to stop the bleeding. If I don't stop it, I might end up dying because of blood loss. However, because of my broken arm, it took a lot of effort to do it. 

I also made an arm sling so it won't hurt anymore. It is also to prevent myself from moving it carelessly.

After exhausting my energy from attending to my wounds, I slump my whole body to the wall. 

I regret it. I regret walking further inside the woods. I should have returned immediately. Now I am trapped in this hole, and I'm injured.

I look at Prince Fraser to check if he also has wounds, but I frown when I realize something is wrong.

I slowly inch closer to him and check his temperature. My eyes immediately widen when I feel he is burning up. 

He has a high fever. Is it the reason why he becomes silent? But why would he catch fever all of a sudden?

I look at his body. Did he get wounded when he fell? Is it the reason why he has a fever?

I take a deep breath. "Please forgive me, Prince Fraser, but I need to check on your condition," I whispered to him.

I cannot let anything happen to you because you are one of the keys for me to return to my own world.

I heard Prince Fraser groan. He probably heard what I said. 

I look at his reaction, and it seems like he is really in pain. I must check on his condition now. 

I removed his upper clothing and gasped when I realized something was stabbing his abdomen. It's wood. It's probably the reason why he has a fever.

I froze in the spot. Isn't this the same exact wound I have written in the novel? Prince Fraser was also stabbed in his abdomen, and Princess Paislee was the one who helped him with his wounds. 

It's the same situation but with different characters. Why did the villainess end up with the male lead instead of the female lead?

I look at Prince Fraser, and I start to panic again. Forget about all those things. I need to make sure Prince Fraser is safe first.

I don't know what to do. It's the first time I have seen something like this in real life. I don't know if I should take the wood out of his body or just let it.

"If I take it out, he'll end up bleeding. But if I don't, he might get an infection. He might end up dying if that happens. His body is already reacting to the foreign thing in his body. It's a sign of infection. If I don't pull it out..."

I stop my words and look at Prince Fraser. If I don't do this, I might end up losing him.

I know the best aid is not to remove it, but I don't know when they will find us. If his infection continues, I'm afraid I might really end up losing him.

I started to panic. I don't know what to do. Based on the articles I have read before, it would be best to leave it as ease to prevent bleeding. But he is already burning up. Is it okay to do that?

"Csille... take... it out." I heard Prince Fraser say with too much difficultly. He is probably having a hard time because of the wood.

I tremble. Do I really need to take it out? I'm not afraid of blood, but I just cannot look at this kind of wound because I feel like I can also sense their pain.

But Prince Fraser already told me to do so. So, I really don't have any other choice. 

Relax, Ysavel. You just need to remember the articles your read before about stab wounds. Just follow it, and everything will be okay.

First, I need to lie him down. It is to prevent him from getting a shock. I also need to check if there is anything stuck in the wound because taking it out might endanger the patient. However, since I didn't see anything stuck, I guess I'll have to take it out.

I gently lay him down. But before taking the wood out of his body, I ripped the hem of my outer dress again to make a bandage for his wound. 

I take a deep breath and look at the wood in his body. With trembling hands, I hold that wood that pierces through his abdomen. I feel Prince Fraser jolted because of what I did. 

"I'm sorry, Prince Fraser. This would badly hurt, but please bear it for a while. I don't know when will help reach us, so I need to take it off from your body."

I close my eyes and count one to three before I slowly remove the wood from his body. If this is the same scene I have written, then I don't have to worry about anything since the wood didn't damage any organ. 

I heard Prince Fraser grunts. I immediately take the bandages I made and wrap it around his wound tightly to stop the wound from bleeding. 

I need to ensure that there is enough pressure on his wounds so the blood won't come out. After making sure that everything is okay, I lean my body on the wall and sigh.

I winced when I felt the wound on my abdomen aches. Even my arm is aching because I have no choice but to use it to properly bandage Prince Fraser's wounds.

I close my eyes to take a short rest. After all, I also have injuries that I need to tend. I'll just check on Prince Fraser when I wake up. 

"Your highness, are you okay?" I heard a familiar voice.

I opened my eyes and found myself in the same hole, but the only difference is, Princess Paislee was with us too. She is currently tending on Prince Fraser's wound.

What is happening? Why is Princess Paislee here? When does she arrive? 

Princess Paislee helps Prince Fraser sit properly. She then removed Prince Fraser's upper clothing. I heard her gasp when she saw the wood that pierced through Prince Fraser's abdomen.

Prince Fraser said something, but I didn't hear what he said. Princess Paislee looks around and rips Prince Fraser's upper clothing. She then takes the wood out of Prince Fraser's body and bandages it just likes how I did.

Prince Fraser grunts and leans his head on Princess Paislee's shoulder for a few moments before he looks up at her. 

They looked at each other's eyes for a couple of minutes before Princess Paislee averted her gaze and moved away from Prince Fraser.

Isn't this the scene I have written? The scene that is supposed to happen.
