The healer pulled me to my feet. The room swayed dangerously but I stayed upright.
Dominic was asleep. Not unconscious. Not seizing. Just sleeping peacefully. The bracelet still glowed faintly on his wrist.
"How long until he wakes up?" I asked.
"Hard to say. His body needs to recover from the trauma. Could be hours. Could be a day." The healer checked his vitals. "But he will wake up. The danger has passed."
I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. Walked to the bed. Touched Dominic's face. Still pale but warming up. The black veins were completely gone.
"Thank you." I turned to Lila. "I don't know how to repay this."
"You don't need to. Just stop Black Moon. That's payment enough." Lila moved toward the door. Stopped. "The bracelet is yours now. Keep it. You'll need it before this is over."
She left before I could respond.
I turned to Killian. He'd collapsed in the chair. Purple veins still visible on his skin but lighter now.
