The trial for Jiemma Orland's case became the most controversial in decades. Government officials and business tycoons related to the drug lord were summoned to testify in court – some of which were sentenced along with the main perpetrator.
True to her word, Minerva Orland betrayed her father and was left with the vast amount of properties that were secretly kept from the authorities. She left the country on the day when the trial concluded.
People were commending Detective Loki Theleon for his impeccable work. The president even sent him a letter - inviting him for some afternoon coffee at the palace.
Lucy's brown orbs were coated with sadness as she read the daily newspapers beside her fiance's hospital bed.
It's been a week ever since they found Loki's unconscious body outside of the Orland estate. Cana was the one who informed her of her lover's situation. She cried the whole night beside his bed – not wanting to leave him in fear for his life.
Doctors informed her that the pill forced down on the orange-head had a chemical substance that affected a person's brain function for body control. Upon initial contact, his body would be unable to have power over certain limbs – where he would act only on pure instincts. Then, after four to five hours, the side effects would finally show as it renders the body unconscious.
It was a special drug that was produced by one of Orland's factories and was classified by the health officials as deadly and toxic.
The medical experts tried their best to flush out the toxins from his body. Luckily, he was only given a small dosage and the procedure done on him was successful - not even a tiny particle was left in his system.
Now, they just needed to wait for Detective Theleon to wake up from his coma.
"Come on Loki. Wake up. Please..." Lucy pleaded as her hand gripped his unresponsive ones.
"Loki..."
(How about an early flight to Spain?)
"We're still going to Spain remember?"
(For sightseeing... and some dinner by the bay?)
"You still owe me a lot of dates."
(I love you.)
"You'll really break my heart if you keep sleeping like that."
(I love you.)
"Please... wake up..." Lucy trailed her sentence with a sob – not being able to fight back the tears.
"Lok-"
A grip.
Startled, Lucy scrambled out of her chair and hovered over Loki's face.
A blink.
"Loki!" She yelped.
A pair of hazel eyes greeted her chocolate ones and her arms instinctively wrapped around he's neck.
"Lucy?" his voice was hoarse and Loki felt that his body seemed heavier and weaker than normal. "Hey, sweetheart..." he called out when he noticed that his lover was not responding to him.
When her cries died down, Lucy proceeded to shower Loki's face with tender and sweet kisses. "I thought it was 'The End' already." She jokingly remarked.
His eyes danced in mirth at seeing the most beautiful smile in the world.
"Not in our story." He kissed her forehead and caressed her cheek. "Never in our story."
(And they spent the day drowning in each other – just like the first time they met.)

"So... what happens next?"
"How about we get married and make lots and lots of babies?"
"Hm..." She hummed.
He cupped her cheeks and nuzzled her nose.
"...I like that."
