As his senses were returning to normal, he first heard Colin's concerned voice calling out to him, and when he managed to see normally again after those black dots were gone, he said to him, "Damn, I didn't want you to see me like that."
Colin frowned and said to him, "Why do you say that? Elias is right; I'm your only mage, and it's my duty to heal you when you're hurt..."
Colin suddenly fell silent, and all the pieces of the puzzle fell into place on their own. He said, lowering his head to avoid his gaze, "So that's why you sent Lucas in your place to assign me to protect this world; it was because you were hurt and didn't want me to know. And that's when you met Axel's mother... Fuck, looking back on it now, it coincides perfectly."
Mykael smiled in spite of himself; Colin was way too smart. Only a sentence, and he had guessed everything. He said to tease him, "You're making a scene when I'm at my worst; shouldn't you be pampering me instead?"
