Chapter 38 The Renovation

• Kieran's POV
• The sound of footsteps scurrying past my door roused me awake as my eyes flew open. The noise had been so loud, I had even heard it in my sleep. I could have sworn a stampede was going on somewhere around. Even while I slept, I knew the last thing I wanted was to get trampled upon, whether in a dream world or real life.
• A small groan slid past my lips as I rubbed at my eyes. After my blurry eyes had cleared a bit, I raised my eyes to the clock high up on the wall. A small gasp slid past my lips when I realized what the time was.
