Adeline POV
As I stayed in the stream, I knew that it was hopeless and useless to just sit, wishing that someone would come for me. I was here alone. So I had to make some plan to help myself, I couldn’t get lost in my hopes while waiting for him to come.
I glanced down at my leg. That would take some time to heal. And I was pretty sure that it needed to be set, also. It isn’t going to be easy, and I won’t be able to leave immediately. But it will heal.
I pushed myself out of the water. I felt much better than before, now that I was clean.
I took a deep breath, and limped back to the cabin. I was just going to have to stay here until I healed. I wanted Zale to come for me, but I wasn’t going to pin all my hopes on that.
I came up with a plan as I went into the hut again. I laid down, I would rest and I would heal. And then once I was better, I would find my way out of here.
It was easier said than done.
