#Chapter21
Well, that was the most painful thing I have ever had to endure. But the effects from the antidote worked quickly. I wasn't in that much pain anymore.
Doctor Reeves apologised profusely for not picking up on the Hemlock. Although he couldn't help it, Hemlock isn't detected until a few hours.1
I managed to keep complete control too; well, with a little help from Rhydian.
'A lot of help.' Aurora chuffed.
I rolled my eyes and snuggled further into my cover. Everyone left so I could get some rest. Well, everyone but Rhydian, he's downstairs in case I need him. Much to my reluctance, he wouldn't take no for an answer.
But I secretly like that he's still here... I think. Either that or Aurora is projecting her feelings onto me. We may be one soul but we definitely have two minds. I'm still not sure if I completely trust him whereas Aurora wants to roll over and let him have his way.
