Chapter 31
Fiona wiped her hands on her apron as the shift in the infirmary ended. She let out a small breath, glad the day was over. Cillian, one of the senior healers and her partner for the whole shift, walked beside her, his brow furrowed as he glanced at her. "You did well today, Fiona, but there's something we need to address," Cillian said, his tone calm but firm. "You tend to jump to conclusions too quickly. You can't assume what a patient's issue is before examining them thoroughly. It's dangerous." Fiona nodded, but inwardly, she disagreed. She wasn't guessing her abilities allowed her to feel what was wrong with the patients almost immediately. It wasn't an assumption-her senses just knew. Of course, she couldn't exactly explain that to Cillian, so she stayed quiet, nodding along to his advice.
"Just keep that in mind," Cillian added before giving her a brief rod and heading off.
As she turned to leave, Miss Rosenda, the head healer, approached her. "Fiona," Rosenda called, her voice as sharp as always. "How was your first shift?"
"It was fine, Miss Rose," Fiona replied quickly, hoping her nervousness didn't show.
"Good," Rosenda nodded. Then her eyes narrowed slightly. "Come to my office. We need to talk."
Fiona followed Miss Rosenda into her office, the room small but neatly organized. As soon as the door closed, Rosenda didn't waste any time. "What's your relationship with Prince Elijah?"
Fiona blinked, taken aback by the direct question. "We're... close friends," she answered carefully. "I saved him once, and that's all there is to it."
Rosenda gave her a hard look. "Everyone in the palace now believes you're his lover," she said bluntly. "You should be careful. Rumors like this can ruin you."
Fiona swallowed, her cheeks heating up at the thought. "Thank you, Miss Rose. I'll be careful."
Rosenda nodded, her expression softening slightly. "Good. Now, go rest. I'll see you tomorrow."
Fiona left the infirmary, feeling the weight of the conversation settle over her. She started walking towards Elijah's palace, her mind racing with thoughts about the rumors. However, before she could reach her destination, she encountered Miss Carissa.
