Chapter 73

• I lay on the bed, my feet where my head should go, on my tummy hugging a pillow. Daxx was beside me putting cold cloths on my back every few minutes. No one was sure what was on my back, not even Clairee. I made Victor let me see when we got to the room. My scar had turned an awful dark color and it was oozing. I still didn’t feel it, and I was starting to think not feeling something like that happening was worse than feeling it.
• Everyone was here, again. If this kept happening I was going need more chairs in my room. Victor made them all stand on the other side of the room so I didn’t feel crowded, but honestly, I was getting used to all of the brothers now. What he didn’t know was they all practiced with me when he was out rampaging.
• The doctor looked on from a distance, avoiding Victor. It was not his field of expertise he said and left quickly. Romulus looked curious, but even after researching, hadn’t been able to find a spell to counter it that I’d live through. So, thankfully, Daxx told him we’d pass trying that one. Clairee and her friend were not pleased to see someone was able to unbind their weave. She said someone was using strong magic to find me, before running out of the room saying they had a new idea and would return shortly.
