Chapter 230
Eden
Waking up today is much harder than it was yesterday, because I already feel how sore I am, and Devante is saying words.
Words that are annoying me.
“Eden, open those pretty eyes.”
I push at where I think his voice is coming from. “Noooo,” I groan.
“C’mon, are you okay?”
“Annoyed,” I mumble.
He chuckles loudly. “Are you not a morning person?”
Opening my eyes, I glare at him. “Not until after I’ve had my first cup of coffee,” I sigh. “Usually you don’t see me until after two.”
“I was starting to wonder if I’d need to pull out the smelling salts.”
“Are those really a thing?” I ask, turning my head to the side. “I’ve only ever heard of them in old movies.”
“They are.” He reaches out, putting his palm on my forehead. “Just making sure you don’t have a fever.”
“Am I good?” I grumble, wrinkling my nose at him.
