Lena didn't answer me right away. Her gaze was locked on Hayden outside the window. "How long do you think he'll take?"

I glanced outside. Sancho was practically groveling, completely at Hayden's mercy, while Hayden just stood there with one hand casually tucked in his pocket. The morning sunlight hit him just right, making him look like he was glowing or something. And I couldn't take my eyes off him.

This quiet sense of pride bubbled up inside me, a voice in the back of my mind whispering, 'Keira, that's your guy.

Getting involved with Hayden had been kind of an accident-something that happened when I was still reeling from my breakup with Jace, just looking for a distraction. But now? I realized I'd hit the jackpot. He wasn't just good-looking; he could handle things. "Uh, hello? I asked you a question," Lena nudged me when I didn't respond.

I blinked, snapping out of my thoughts. "Oh, right. Shouldn't take much longer."

If I had to guess, Sancho was probably begging Hayden to fix his shoulder by now.

Yuna had told me once that Hayden knew how to reset dislocated joints. Some old doctor in Pencetown had taught him. When Yuna was younger, she used to have this issue where her arm would pop out of place easily, and Hayden learned how to fix it after taking her to the doctor so many times.

If he knew how to pop one in, it stood to reason he could pop one out too-probably why Sancho had been so quick to cooperate.
