I blinked in confusion, staring up at the plain white infirmary ceiling.
"Harper! You're awake!" I turned my head, and Damon's face filled my entire vision. I squinted, trying to keep all of him in view. "How are you feeling?"

"Sorry. Instinct," Damon said, with the slightest hint of embarrassment in his voice. I wanted to raise my eyebrow, but I realized I couldn't quite manage such a simple feat.
