Chapter Sixteen

ANNA

It's been three days since I broke my leg and finally I get this irritating thing off.

I know I'm whining.  Humans have to spend weeks in their casts, but as a shifter, healing for more then a day is a complete piss off.

My leg is now good as new.  I don't even have a scar where the bone pierced my skin.  This will definitely be lesson learned.

I should probably go find River as he's been looking stressed for days now.  He definitely didn't like that I hurt myself, but he seemed agitated.   When he kissed me yesterday, it was like he was taking a dose of medicine for whatever was ailing him.  Not that I minded, I mean he's a mind blowing kisser, I'm just curious as to why he's so fevered all of sudden.  

It's lunch time when I'm freed from my cast.  I immediately link River.

"Where are you?"

"Hey, Baby, I'm in the dining hall."

"Can you get away?  My cast is off."
