Chapter 123 Dead man

• Shane
• The next two weeks went by the same way. I woke up weak and my sister fed me. I tried to stay up to converse with her, but would go back under. I would sleep for two, maybe three days before I awake again. Mave tended to my back and made sure that they were cleaned and changed to stop infection from spreading.
• I wanted desperately to believe that when I woke up I would be ready to leave this place and head towards the place we’d once called home. Healing was unbelievably slow and I could feel Max chomping at the bits. Whatever the whips had been soaked in had slowed our recovery time by a lot. My wounds had begun to heal, they itched at this point, and I knew that was a good sign. The cage around Max had weakened and I knew he was ready to be free, ready to run, and ready to take back what was ours.
