Chapter 16

Katarina's POV

Lightning cut through the grey clouds, and raindrops fall to the ground, making the sweet aroma of Earth invade my nostrils. My lids felt heavy like I was drowning deeper and deeper into the slumber of darkness.

His fragile touch brushed the hairs off my face in a gentle caress that melted me in his touch. Leaning back against the seat, I took a deep breath, my head tilting towards the window as I blinked looking out.

“How are you feeling?” His rich honey-laced voice reached my ears, soothing the raging of my emotions.

Everything felt surreal, out of this world. My emotions, his touch, his presence, the rain, and the clouds, that does nothing but made my emotions heightened.

“I’m fine,” my voice barely reached my ears but Augustus nodded regardlessly. His eyes trailed on the front, as he drove us to his house. After leaving the hospital, he suggested I should rest until James find something to cure Aconite poisoning.
