The Morning After
I was passed out while the situation resolved itself, and only just woke up to find myself lying in a bed beside Luca's bed.
The idiot was snoring as he slept without a care in the world which annoyed me as we'd had so much trouble fighting off against the hashashin who'd stolen his face.
I sat up in bed thinking about counters for poisons that I would need to stock up on now. Last night's embarrassment won't be repeated.
My eyes glanced around the room, and only then did I realize that we weren't in the infirmary I left Luca in the previous night.
We were in Princess Aurana's suite, the pale blue walls and white gossamer curtains were similar enough. Perhaps we were in one of the adjoining rooms that led to her bed-chamber.
That thought made me blush, and remembering the princess in her thin day-gown made that blush get even hotter.
