Tessa watched the day turn into night. This was how they spent her days now. Adaline remained unconscious as she laid on the bed she had been occupying for past couple of weeks. She laid unconscious for days which turned eventually into weeks. The routine remained to be same old, same old and it never changed too much to her dismay.

No matter how much she wanted adaline to wake up the young girl remained unconscious as if she had no desire to wake up and look at the world at the same again. The doctors were trying to make sure that she was healthy and she was kept on heavy medication because of the injuries that she had suffered. It all had injured her gravely and it also affected her consciousness as her body had introduced herself into a coma.

There was nothing that they could do about it now because it was the waiting game as she was constantly being pumped blood and glucose into her.

"Ma\'am," a maid stood next to her speaking softly as if Adeline was not in a comma but sleeping, "the queen mother has asked for your presence at the dining table. You must have dinner before retiring for the night."

She nodded hurriedly and watched as the maid left quietly. Tessa had no idea about what protocols of this world were but all she knew was that there was a real Kingdom existing and a whole new world that she had no idea about.

The air hair felt pure much more than the world that she had already been. Even though they had every technology that they had in their world and even more advanced there was still more different than she had ever seen.

She gulped and stood up walking over to her knees. She gently caressed the hair of adaline which seem to be rough and dry. She missed the shine in those hair, missed the shine that adaline had in her eyes and the smile too. "Just. . Wake up, soon, yeah?" She bobed her nose bedore moving out as a doctor came in to replace her.

For all that could be explained to Tessa and to her understanding adaline was the queen of these people. She was never left alone and when it was the night when Tessa went to sleep and left her niece\'s room a doctor, a highly trained one at that, often came in and replaced her.

As she walked out of the room and towards the dining hall she looked out of the huge windows in the hallway. It overlook the capital where their permanent residence was.

The site of the entire capital was beautiful and even though they had people of every kind in the economy ranging from the poorest to the richest she found that no one was unhappy, which for her was truly weird.

She sighed and placed her hands in the pockets of her jeans. Having another wierd cultural shock was nothing against what she felt when she was made aware of everything happening around her or what was in Adeline\'s knowledge before she had shifted back to her home state.

As she approached the dining hall the guards bowed at the sight of her and opened the door for her. She immediately spotted Cassandra or as a title stated, the queen mother.

"Hello," she greeted softly as Cassandra stood up to greet her as well. The shared a small hug. "How are you?" She asked the beaten down woman who had lost a lot in the past battle happened weeks ago.

"I can\'t tell." Cassandra rasped out as she sat down. " No matter how much I try to think about it all I do is end up in tears."

Tessa nodded and dropped her eyes. It was not easy to make conversations with any of them. The family had lost a lot and none of them were willing to talk about it and she understood where they were coming from.

The grief was by far only beginning.

"How is . . . Ashylnn?" She cleared her throat, "Did she come out?"

Cassandra shook her head as she stare at the table in front of her. She slowly shook her head as her mind was somewhere else but she was also paying attention to what Tessa was saying.

"No, my maid tried to bring her out but no, she did not listen. The shocks too much for her and it is understandable that she needs time to deal with it." She sniffed and smiled sadly, "we all need time to deal with, especially the one child that I have left. . ." She sniffed, barely able to get her words out, "They all have—" she broke down completely at that.

Tessa stood up immediately and hugged the women close. She allowed the woman to take her shoulder and cry as much as she wanted. To grieve for all of it.

"It\'s . . . " She closed her mouth immediately. How could she say that it was going to be alright or it was going to get all better? She remembered when her parents died and after that when she received the news of her brother passing away and then the fact when adaline had disappeared. How could she say that it would ever get alright?

"Time will heal the wounds, I suppose?" Cassandra tried chuckled as she continued to cry But had caught what Tessa was trying to say.

Tessa shook her head, "I am sorry but no," she said as she comforted the woman, "time will not heal these deep wounds. Time will just make it all bearable." She whispered out as the woman cried silently.

Everyone had suffered a huge loss. Someone dealing with it now and some were going to deal with that later. Adaline and Xavier were going to have a lot of differences in between when she would wake up and Tessa prayed for strength to be given to her child for all that she had to deal with.
