Chapter 14

Ashlyn was half asleep when she suddenly felt her body burning. Even her breath was heated.

She shifted uncomfortably and opened her eyes. At once, she met the man’s dark gaze.

Ashlyn propped herself up and touched her forehead. “What time is it?”

“Four in the morning.”

“Why aren’t you asleep?” She stared at Lucas curiously.

“Since you’re awake, take the meds.” He got off the bed and got her a glass of water. He then removed the packaging of the pills and gave them to her.

“Meds?” Ashlyn gazed at the pills resting on her palm blankly.

She wasn’t used to taking meds when she was sick.

Lucas furrowed his brows. “Didn’t you realize you have a fever? I shouldn’t have brought you here. You must’ve caught a fever because of me.”

“No wonder my body is aching so badly.” Ashlyn didn’t like taking medicine, but since Lucas was staring at her, she had no choice but to swallow the pills.
