Lucas Walker closed his eyes, and her small hand was on a pressure point just below his earlobe, gently massaging.
"There's a point here, somewhere around this area, that cures insomnia, causing a little numbing pain. But it's really effective. My mom used to suffer from insomnia, and my dad helped massage her every night. Now she's completely cured..."
She kept speaking as she massaged.
Unsure if it was because her massage was working or because her voice calmed him down, the fantastic outcome was that Lucas Walker really fell asleep.
Hearing his gradually steady breathing, Ivana Bennett carefully lifted her finger from his ear, gingerly shifted her position in his arms, reached for her phone, and slipped into the comforter to text Olivia Parker.
"I remember you previously mentioned a traditional medicine clinic in New York that does auricular acupressure. Give me the address."
Olivia Parker's text quickly arrived in response.
"Let me check."
