Chapter 42

• {Ryanna’s POV}
• "I’ll want to talk a walk," I said, grabbing the edge of the bed as I pushed to my feet. My legs hurt like they still hated me for waking up at all.
• Even hours after waking, my entire being refused to respond with the speed and efficiency I was used to. Or maybe it got familiar with the calm of deep slumber. The pain wasn't just a result of the poison but also weeks of back-to-back physical and mental exertion without proper rest.
