Chapter 700

• Every day, I felt a little bit better and by the second day after being released from the infirmary, I went outside for the first time and checked on the training status of the Zetas. Carter followed me closely, and I didn’t have the energy to tell him to leave me alone.
• He blamed himself for not checking in sooner, and no matter what I told him, he refused to believe anything else. He was more loyal than I could have asked for, but his presence was a little stifling, even if he meant well.
• Adelie had become more attentive, making sure I took my medication, and the stitches were finally taken out and the mark was fading slowly. It was a week before the wedding, and Kiran popped in every now and then, giving me shit when he caught me in the office working.
