After walking a while, Lucas found a concealed spot and gently set Sloane down.

“Let’s take a break here. Eat something before we move on,” he said in a low voice.

Sloane nodded. Her body was still weak, but now wasn’t the time to act tough. She sat on a rock and gently rubbed her sore arm.

“You should rest too,” she said quietly. “You’ve been carrying me this whole time- you must be exhausted.”

Lucas shook his head and crouched down in front of her, eyes on her arm. “I’m fine. What about you? How’s the wound?”

Sloane looked down at it. “Still holding up. It didn’t reopen—just hurts a little.”

She pointed to his pack. “Hand me the bag. There should be some herbs inside.”

Lucas quickly pulled out the pouch and handed it to her.

Sloane guided him on how to prep them to maximize their effect.

Once he finished, Lucas carefully pressed the treated herbs onto her wound, speaking gently. “It might sting a little. Try to bear it.”

“Okay.” Sloane nodded faintly and lowered her gaze, watching him crouch in front of her. She could only see the top of his head, but something strange stirred in her chest.
