Chapter 23. Another Mate

Koko’s POV

I felt huge sweat dropping from my forehead. I tried opening my eyes, but I felt my body aching. It seemed I was lying on a wooden bed. No wonder my body was aching seriously.

I struggled to get up from the bed with difficulty and agony. When I looked around I noticed I was in a room. It was a dimly lit room with simple artistic designs.

Where was I?

I was filled with so many questions, but no one to answer me. I got off the bed and tried walking around to check if I would see anyone.

When I came out, I was surprised to see that I was surrounded by trees and shrubs. The house or rather hut was in the middle of the forest.

Where was I? How did I get here? Who brought me here and where were the people chasing me? These questions kept bothering me.

“Are you awake, little cupcake?”

I turned around to see a young looking boy at my back. My heart almost jumped out of my chest. I patted myself as I breathed in and out.
