Chapter 60

• Auden’s POV
• We were all almost done eating and I was already seriously considering going to go check up on Nicolas to figure out what was keeping them long when I heard their faint voices from down the hallway. I glanced up and watched as they all walked leisurely towards the table. Nicolas’s white hair was braided on his head while a few escaped curls fell into his face as he took the first seat on my left hand side- without wincing, thankfully.
• Nicole slid into the seat beside him while Daven took the one after Nicole. I noticed how pale and tired Daven looked, and sleepy.
