*~Gabrielle's POV~*
Once beaten, twice shy, they said, but except I'm not shy. I still wanted to fight. She was standing right in front of me, her sword arched over my neck. I immediately hit the sword from her hand and slapped her, and then she pushed me. My eyes immediately fluttered open, my heart pounding in my chest. It was a dream.
"Oh, my lady!" Penny immediately held my hand. "You're awake."
"How are you doing, sister?" I turned to Isabelle, sitting right next to me. I noticed my arm was bandaged as I sat up weakly.
"I'm fine. What happened?"
"She pushed you off the window, and unfortunately, Penny was about to save you when the door immediately opened," Isabelle said, and then Damien entered.
"Greetings, your majesty," both Penny and my sister bowed, then stood up and left the room while Damien sat beside me.
He held my hand. "How are you doing, Lady Gabrielle? I rushed here immediately after I heard what happened to you. Are you okay, my lady?"
