43. A Discovery

KIAN

Night had fallen and although I wanted to question every fucking person, I couldn’t leave her. So I had the entire fucking castle searched, every room, guest or not, I didn’t care. If someone was trying to poison Morgana or me, they would pay.

For hours, nothing had been discovered, but then Luca had told me they had found a vial under the banquet table. After testing it, it had indeed contained the poison, but how it had gotten there was still fucking beyond me. So far, no other clue had shown up.

Sighing, I stared at the ceiling, I had brought her back to my room once the doctor had checked her over a final time and she was stable. The rest was up to her, I was just making sure she was getting the rest and blood she needed. I had taken the hospital gown off and pulled one of my shirts onto her, doing my best to keep her covered.

I kept seeing the flashes of her at the dining table, the way her body-

‘Stop it Kian.’ Thanatos’ growl came.
