Chapter 178

178 Harvest Moon proposal … Lyla I came awake slowly .

My body ached as if I had carried a thousand bricks .

My head throbbed , my limbs were sore , and my mind was clouded with fragments of memory I couldnt piece together .

The first thing I noticed was that I was in my human form … thank goodness .

Are you alright ? he asked again .

I nodded , noticing to my dismay that all I had covering my nakedness were my tattered clothes .

Theyre trying to be as slow as possible so you can join them .

Without waiting for my response , he stood in one fluid motion and walked a few paces away from me , turning his back to me , to give me privacy .

I hesitated , glancing at the clothes in my lap .

My hands trembled as I touched the fabric , my mind was racing .

The last thing I remembered was Nymeris feeling trapped with everyone in the room and the warriors attempting to catch us .

We had jumped out of the second floor of the pack house .
