Chapter 8 - Silenced

• After my conversation with Dr Thorne, he went to follow up on my blood tests, and I leaned back against the mountain of pillows behind me and closed my eyes. The words how and why kept flashing behind my closed eyelids. How did someone get ahold of wolfsbane, let alone get it into a hospital and manage to dose someone with it and why would they want to?
• I must have drifted off to sleep again for a while, and when I woke up, I was shocked speechless.
• Luna Lily was sitting beside me reading through a binder of some kind. She is stunning, all regal elegance and true grace. I stir, and she looks up from her lap. "Cassie, thank goodness, I am so glad to see you awake, I've been wanting to talk to you, let me get you Dr Thorne quickly so he can update us on your blood tests and prognosis, and then we need to talk hunny." She pops to the door and whispers to who I assume is the guard the Dr mentioned earlier. He walks away briskly, and Luna Lily resumes her position by my side.
