Alora POV

Between Freya avoiding me and Medea taking up most of my time, I didn't have a chance to push for more information.

But today would give me more answers, Freya was due back in as Medea had to go out with Than somewhere. She could no longer hide from me.

"Freya has just mind-linked me, she's got a sickness bug." Than announces at the breakfast table.

Unbelievable!

"Oh dear, we don't want that in the household, especially with Alora still recovering."

"I'm fine." I chirp out, desperate for answers. Freya could give me all the germs possible, I won't be waiting another day.

"Don't be silly dear. Than, I'll stay behind and keep an eye on Alora while you continue with our plans alone."

"Are you sure mother? You don't mind?"

"Of course not."

With Than's mother here I was starting to feel more like a prisoner than someone recovering. I couldn't go anywhere at the moment, her orders for me to not push myself too far were, I'm sure, meant for my own good but her actions were suffocating. "Where are you going?" I ask Than as he stands up.

"I just need to check the shift change for the off site warriors, nothing to worry about."

"Can't you do that through the mind-link? Exactly how far away are they?"

"Hush Alora, you don't need to worry yourself with such matters. Thankfully I am here now to help Than while you concentrate on yourself."

I don't think I'll ever get used to. I don't remember dreaming whilst I was asleep, but I'm sure if I did, it was of our kisses. "I'm out of pain relief pills, I'll have to pop to the doctors...alone." I use our closeness and the fact that Medea isn't considering as an opportunity to press the point I need to be alone
