Remi's POV
I open my eyes and yawn. My body feels like it won't move anytime soon and the huge, soft blanket I'm covered with is not doing any help  at all. I want to stay in bed forever and just sleep. Moving deeper into the blanket ,I close my eyes. Ready to fall asleep.
"You can't stay in bed forever, love ." A voice says, just as I dose off.
Shrieking, I open my eyes only to see Ace sitting on the bed, with a small smile on his face. I sit up and look at him warily. Upon seeing my expression, he looks down, with a guilty look. I sigh. Why is this so awkward?
"I'm sorry for locking you in the dungeons. I don't know why I over reacted like that. I'm so sorry." He begs.
I'll admit, being in the dungeon was horrifying. But I do get him. I mean, I look different. There is no way he would have just believed me like that. I sigh and take his hands in mine.
"Don't apologize. I get it. Truly. I'm just.......I don't know how to explain this." I say.
Ace scoots closer to me and kisses my forehead. He smiles down at me.
"A witch explained it all. Apparently, white have powers. One being changing physical forms. She suspects that you changed your form unknowingly, while you were releasing your powers. I'm so sorry I wasn't there with you."
"But...... I've been asleep for six years. How......why?"
"Suzie, the witch is not sure but she will be bringing a mother witch to help you harness and control your powers." He says.
I nod and lean into him more. Ace pulls me against him and sighs.
"I can't believe I have you back. When I couldn't find you that day......"
"I'm sorry." 
We fall quiet for a while.
"Someone wants to see you." Ace says, sitting up.
I frown. The bedroom door opens and mom walks in. I gasp. Without thinking, I jump up and run into her open arms. We are both crying and holding onto each other. Ace excuses himself and walks out.
"My little princess." She says, while crying.
Mom and I spent hours in the room. Talking and catching up on current affairs. Then we go downstairs where I see dad, Mike, Camille, Josh, Sophia and more people. I can't believe Sophia and Josh have a son. I jump in excitement when I see him. He looks just like his father.
We all then have dinner under a huge canopy tree. Ace won't let me out his sight. Like his afraid I will disappear. I don't blame him. I've been gone, asleep for six freaking years. I don't even feel like I've been asleep for that long. This is so messed up.
Everyone looks happy. I smile as I look around. I catch Ace looking at me with awe and love. I smile shyly and fumble with my fingers. He just kisses my cheeks and pulls me closer to him.
After dinner, Ace and I bid everyone goodbye and leave for  his cabin. Inside, I slump on the couch and groan while Ace laughs .
"You look done in." He says. I smile.
"You have no idea."
"Come on, love. Let me take you to bed." He says and picks me up.
Up stairs, in the bedroom, he places me on the bed and removes my shoes. Then he tucks me in.
"I'm gonna take a shower, love." He says and leaves before I can even nod.
Yawning, I smile and sigh. Surrounded by Ace's scent, I fall asleep.

The next morning, I wake up and smile when I see, Ace still asleep. I notice there are dark spots under his eyes. I sigh sadly and kiss his forehead, then both his cheeks, then his lips. When I pull back, I notice that he is smiling with his eyes closed. I smile.
"That is the best morning I've had in six years." He says and I smile broadly.
"Good morning." I whisper.
He nods and pulls me closer to him. I smile and watch as he falls asleep again. I soon follow him into a deep slumber.
