章節 287: Offerings

Haldir left the room to manage the devotees, which also consisted of the people who were against Anastasia. 

Anastasia ate her food soon enough. She was too hungry and needed a lot of rest because she was still feeling weak. Seeing how frail she still was, he said, "You are going to rest Anastasia. We will go to meet the Shaman after an hour." 

"But—" 

"Ileus is right, princess," said Kaizan. "While you rest, Darla and I are guarding at the door." Saying that the two vokudlaks walked out of the room. 

Ileus removed the plate from the bed and lay down beside his wife. He put his forearm beneath her head to cradle it. She turned on her side to face him and snuggled in his chest. She closed her eyes and asked, "Where did you go this morning, Aly?" She had missed his warmth and this rock-hard chest. 

He wrapped his arm around her. "I went to look around the temple. Was just checking on the places to see if there were any intrusions."
