I wasn’t sure how long I’d been out, but the sun was high and warm through the dappled shadows of the trees. Lex’s lips lingered against my temple. “We didn’t mean to wake you, love.” I squirmed and rolled my neck, stretching out the sore muscles as best I could, all bundled up in a thick cloak as I was. “It’s fine. I think I’m done resting. We need to talk about what’s happening, anyway.” Ghost twisted around in his saddle. “Now that you’re up, I was gonna try to contact Maddox. He may have more information this morning. Maybe find out how bad it is in there, or out here.”
...You decided to wait until she was awake .... how precious..ly stupid of you.
