Jessica had arrived and informed the injured Thorin Loong that she had called for a doctor but she seemed unconcerned that her husband was lying in a pool of blood on the living room floor. Instead, she strode over to the sofa to sit down and scroll through her phone while Thorin Loong shouted that he doesn't need a doctor.

"No! You need a doctor!" Zi Mei told him. 

Thorin Loong informed her that he has already stopped bleeding so she can actually stop pressing on the wound. She didn't believe him so she lifted her hand and her blood-soaked shirt from his wound. He was right. It has stopped bleeding and the wounds looked like it is drying up too. 

"How…." She asked in amazement. But she shook her head. He is still wounded and he is lying in a small pool of his blood. That's still not good. Who knows how much blood he has lost. 

"You will need stitches! And who knows how much blood you've lost, you might go into cardiac arrest," she insisted. 

"I thought you are an art student…since when you became a doctor," Thorin Loong asked. The colour in his face is returning too. He is not looking as pale as when he first came in. It is so bizarre Zi Mei could not believe it. 

It must be the lighting in here, she thought.

"Well, it doesn't take a doctor to see the wounds you have and the pool of blood you are lying in," she replied. "What happened to you anyway? Were you mugged?" 

"The demons…Jessica, what happened after I left?" Thorin turned to his wife who was sitting on the sofa looking unconcerned and bored. 

"Demons?" Zi Mei asked. She still finds it hard to believe that demons existed but she can't deny what she saw at her house. The thing that looked like Darren was obviously not human. The only plausible explanation is that it is a demon as Thorin Loong said. 

"Yes, demons, like the one that looked like your friend," Thorin Loong replied. "Jessica? What happened? Progress update please?" 

"Well, quit playing the victim and come over here to talk like a proper elder, honestly," Jessica replied, rolling her eyes. 

"What…aren't you his wife? Why are you so cold hearted? He is injured!" Zi Mei exclaimed. Is this what Thorin Loong meant when he said Jessica is not exactly his wife? Were they on the verge of divorce? It sure looked like it. 

Thorin Loong placed his hands on hers, which is still resting on her t-shirt covering his wounds. 

"Don't worry, you can let go now, my bleeding has stopped, I can probably walk now, if you help me,"he said. 

Zi Mei felt her face turning red, she is sure it is even redder than his pool of blood, at the way he is looking at her and the way his large warm hands covered hers so intimately. 

"Of course I'll help you since your wife is not bothered," she said, glaring at Jessica who seems unperturbed. Jessica merely rolled her eyes, cross her long slim legs immaculately and studied her nails.

"Enough with the theatrics and drama both of you, this is getting so tedious," Jessica said coldly. She made not move to come over to help.

Why would she label it as drama when her husband is obviously injured, Zi Mei thought to herself. She is now confident that the couple must be on the verge of divorce or separated. No wife would behave like this if their husband is lying wounded on the floor in a pool of his blood. 

Thorin Loong is now sitting up, almost too easily for someone with serious wounds on his abdomen. He grasped Zi Mei's hands, squeezed it and let go. 

"Are you sure you can stand up? Maybe you should sit here till the doctor comes," she suggested.

Thorin Loong laughed. "Don't worry Lil Zi, I will be fine even before the doctor comes," he said. He supported himself and struggled to a standing position. He handed Zi Mei's blood soaked t-shirt back to her. 

"Thank you for this," he said, his eyes twinkling. He looked at her in her skimpy singlet. "I like what you're wearing right now," 

She blushed and suppressed an urge to cover her chest with her arms. Her singlet isn't low cut at all but it is smeared with Thorin Loong's blood. She moved to hold his arm to give him support and he grinned at her. 

"Aren't you a regular nurse," he remarked. 

She didn't reply and held him in a supportive manner as he walked towards the sofa slowly, wincing slightly at every step. Zi Mei was watching his wounds, worried that he might start bleeding again that she didn't even notice the way Thorin was looking at her. When they reached the sofa, she helped him sit down on a spot across from Jessica. He folded his tall frame on it and sat down gingerly, wincing. 

"Phewww…been a long time since I suffered such injuries…a few hundred years at least," Thorin exhaled. 

"A few hundred years?" Zi Mei asked. What is going on here? Is he delusional because of the blood loss? She raised a hand and placed it on his temple. He might be burning up from an infection too, she thought.

"Do you have a fever? Are you hallucinating now?" she asked him, worried. 

Thorin gave her a look and took her hand away from his temple. 

"I suppose I should explain everything but I have to keep my end of the bargain, you will forget everything anyway soon, so just sit quietly and let me finish this conversation with Jessica first," he told her. 

"What do you mean forget everything? Watching you bleed all over the floor is hardly an easy thing to forget or the attack by the demon either," she replied. 

"Oh keep quiet little girl. Let us talk first," Jessica snapped at her. Zi Mei clamped her mouth shut but she saw Thorin Loong glare at Jessica. 

"Don't do that Jessica," he warned her. Jessica merely shrugged as if it doesn't matter. 

Zi Mei was touched that he is taking her side and not his wife's but she also felt guilty. It was if she is a mistress sitting in between a husband and wife and making him choose her over his wife. She felt like the third wheel here. She stood up. 

"I…errr…I'll go wash my hands while you talk," she said. She headed to the corridor where it will lead to the toilet. 

After Zi Mei was gone, Jessica regarded Thorin for a moment. 

"Are you going to let her go again? We have resolved the whole demon situation," she said. 

"Tell me what happened after I left," he repeated.

Thorin Loong had led a war against the demon attacks on all three realms - the human realm, the dragon realm and the demon realm - to rescue dragons and humans that have been abducted and harmed by the demons. 

Two dragon clans - the Heaven's Descent and Sea Jade - have partnered to fight the demons, opting not to involve the three other dragon clans since the attack was only against these two clans. 

During a particularly messy fight with hundreds of demons at the demon realm, Thorin was stabbed straight through his abdomen by a strong demon that had levelled up its powers by taking an elder dragon's essence. 

The demon had moved in to stab him again and absorb his essence so Thorin Loong had to disappear immediately since he was too weak to fight back. He had left the war, to come home to self heal, while others were still fighting viciously. Thorin had felt guilty about leaving but he knew if he had stayed, he would have died. 

"Well, the war ended when the Demon King appeared," Jessica said. 

"The Demon King? You mean he wasn't behind the war?" Thorin asked, puzzled.
