A few days after I started to feel better, I was told to rest most of the time. It was boring, especially since Elijah only gave me books to read. Twice as boring. But today, after I finished breakfast in my room, Elijah walked in. I almost jumped off the daybed at his sudden appearance. He didn't say hello; he just sat down next to me. "You're feeling better, aren't you?" he asked. I nodded. "Yes, I think so." "I've asked Eugenia to send you a proper dress." We looked at each other for a moment before I quickly looked away. Frankly, being under Elijah's gaze was uncomfortable, especially when he was in such a calm mood. "When the dress arrives, get ready because we're going out," he continued. "Where are we going?" "To the castle. I have something to discuss with the royal wolves.
