Chapter 649: 649. A Little Patience

The next couple of days passed in a blur. Mauve was just with Louis practicing. They moved back to the first spell, and she was able to start a finger. He was still teaching her some other spells, especially about hearing. Their current goal was to find something that might help with the patches on her skin.

Jael was equally busy. She hardly spent any time with him except during mealtimes and bedtime. She knew he was making plans about the Palers, but nothing she could hear.

"Kieran is leaving tomorrow night," Jael announced as they sat in bed after the last meal.

"What?" she asked softly. "Why?"

"He isn't making any headway here, and he figured it would be better at his estate."

"But is it a good idea to move around right now?" Mauve asked with a concerned look on her face.

"We won't restrict our movements because of them. We will just be cautious and train harder." His jaw hardened a little, and there was a glint in his eyes.
