Lila tried to pry her eyes open. They felt so heavy from the sedative she was given. Maybe her episode had something to do with it too.
She didn't care. All she knew was that she was no longer under the " safety" of Kai's protection.
From the minute she stopped recalling those memories, she had been conscious.
She was lucky enough to hear the conversation between Kai and his mate.
She had felt a painful sting in her heart at the conversation. Regrettably, she couldn't open her eyes due to exhaustion.
That was why she had a fever. Kai lying with her had soothed her aching for reasons unknown to her.
She had basked in the glory of his healing touch and soothing voice. All was well until he left.
She felt uneasy. As though something was approaching. Something dangerous.
She wanted to open her eyes and look around. Her instinct was the sharpest compared to most humans.
