Chapter 94

'SSIIAANNNN?'

'Coming!' Sian answered automatically and sat up in bed, blinking.

Oh shoot! I've overslept again.

Throwing some clothes on, she hurried to Citaan and Gredel's bedroom. When she entered the room, Sian found her blue-haired friend struggling to get slippers on.

'Don't! Let me,' Sian said, while fumbling for the slippers.

Once they were on, she stood and offered both hands to Citaan, carefully easing the woman up from the bed, helping her to the bathroom.
