I received a donation from a kind person and have regained my vision. I'm sure you will too." I couldn't see Indya's face, but I could easily imagine the smug expression she must've worn at that moment. Indya moved close to Anthony and sat directly on his lap. "What are you doing?"

Bright blinked before speaking. "The day after tomorrow." He paused dramatically.

I nod at her before I turn my back to them and take a step towards the door. Lilith's POV A cold breeze tightens around me sticking to my skin waking me from a good sleep. I lift my head up taking in my surroundings. The room is dark, but unlike that hotel room there is soft lighting shining through the curtains. Arthur is not to be seen. "Arthur?" I whisper searching the small one bedroom apartment. I enter the bedroom my hands softly touching against the wall searching for the light switch. I turn on the light when I finally push my finger against the switch. The bed is neatly made up.

Nothing I knew of helped me figure out how to answer any of them. After I was sure the pain in my eyes was gone, I tried to open up my eyes again. This time, I only started to peek out of them to figure out where the bright light came from. When I finally tried to open them this time, I noticed I was not in a dark room like I was before. This room was a lot brighter and a whole lot nicer than the other rooms I was allowed in back at the pack castle. Where exactly am I right now? As I tried to look around the room a bit more, I started to open my eyes a bit further the more I looked around. I was trying to see everything that was around me.
