Chapter 166: Viktor’s Insight

Eleonore’s POV

Hayden had been asleep for almost ten hours after the events of what happened in the garden. I myself had been in and out of consciousness during that time, using magic on Hayden had weakened my body to some extent and I flickered in and out of the dreaming world as easily as it was to blink.

I always woke up sore and tired, my eyes too heavy to keep open for longer than a few moments before I was out cold again.

It wasn’t until a few hours ago that I had woken up fully, my body still sore but feeling relatively well rested-strangely enough-despite it all. I found Hayden as soon as I was able to stand, finding him in the medical bay with Rhett’s help laying on one of the beds that were positioned there in the more private rooms.

Amanda herself was still here, still healing from her wounds though a lot more slowly than Hayden was.

My fingers trailed up and down his chest, his arms and his neck over smooth skin where I knew once there had not been any at all.
