He rumed to Thomas "You're the expert in these matters. What is happening to her?"

Thomas clenched his fists, his jaw tightening as he forced himself to respond. "This is no ordinary poison," he said. "It reacts to interference. It's as if it's been designed to counter any attempt to heal her, but-Thomas clenched his jaw. "But it is already going out of her system."

Fiona's body was fighting back, her healing ability accelerating now that the poison had been forced into retreat. Slowly, the black veins receded, the darkness fading from her arm as her natural color began to retur
