Darkest Risings
“She groaned softly and flinched when something cold settled against her cheek.
“Don’t worry, Wilhemina. You’re going to be fine.”
Aldin’s silky smooth voice instantly comforted her. She kept her eyes closed and reached up to remove what she determined to be an ice pack from her face.
Memories of the awful fight between Aldin and Uriah and her stupidity rushed her. Note to self: Never jump between two men who are fighting.
She was certain Uriah hadn’t meant to hit her, but that information didn’...t make the pain in her face one bit better. She carefully felt her cheek and jaw, surprised that it wasn’t more swollen than it was. Maybe he hadn’t hit her quite as hard as she imagined. Maybe he’d just rung her bell good.
She winced. Nope. Her memory was crystal clear on how hard he’d hit her. She thought he’d broken at least her jaw and possibly her cheekbone, yet even as sore as she was, she didn’t think she was in enough pain to account for broken bones. Long, warm fingers wrapped around her hand, pulled it from her face, and she finally worked up enough courage to open her eyes.MoreLess
