Light filtered in through a nearby window and danced across Rhett’s face, illuminating his hair. He looked peaceful in his slumber, and I could’ve lied there for hours watching him. But after a few moments, I realized his face was covered in blood and my body ached. Memories of what had happened flooded my mind, and I jolted upright.
I groaned as my arms and shoulder sent shock waves of pain through me. My right hand throbbed as I flexed it, and I remember when I had grabbed the doorknob and burned it. I was covered in gauze, and I couldn’t remember where it can from. All I remember was the crow attacking us, getting to the furnace, rekindling House’s flame. A white-hot light flashed in my mind, and I ached at the memory. I must’ve gotten hurt after I relit the flame.
