Dex opened his eyes and stared down at Zoey, who lay still and slumbering.

“Dex? What happened?” Thor asked.

Dex held up his hand for silence. “Wait.”

They waited in silence. He knew Thor and Koran had to be filled with questions, but he had faith. She was coming home to him.

Her eyelids fluttered. Looking down into her eyes was the most beautiful sight in the universe.

“Welcome home, my own.”

Chapter Nine

Zoey stirred, blinking as the sound of a raised voice woke her. She glanced around the room. She was still stuck in medical, although Thor had assured her that if she kept improving she could go back to the palace within the next few days.

Four days had passed since Dex had pulled her out of her coma. This was one of the rare times that Dex had left her side. It had taken her, Koran, and Thor to convince him to leave. He’d probably only agreed to go because he knew she would be well guarded. Boris was never far away.

As well as Boris, there was always two other guards assigned to her. Dex’s protective instincts were on high since she had collapsed on him. Not that she could blame him. Apparently, it was unheard of for a qola to enter a built-up area. They stuck to the desert, so how it had come to be in her belongings was being treated as suspicious.

She didn’t understand why someone would want to harm her, though. Dex’s family didn’t approve of her, but she couldn’t see them wishing her harm and she hadn’t had enough time to piss anyone off that much.

Which made her worry that perhaps someone wished Dex harm. But the qola had been hidden in her belongings, where it would likely harm her.

There was still a slim chance it had slithered its way into the palace on its own. But why their bedroom? It seemed too much of a coincidence and she knew Dex didn’t believe in those.

“Your Royal Highness, I cannot allow you to enter.”

Zoey frowned as the guard’s voice filtered through the door. She looked to her right to find Boris standing beside her bed, his gaze focused on the door.

“I demand you let me past.” Liula’s voice was filled with fury and Zoey winced. It would take a strong person to stand in her way.

“I don’t think she would harm me, do you?” she asked Boris.

He glanced down at her then at the door. The light in the room had been lowered to allow her to sleep while still giving the healers enough light to see by.

Boris nodded. Then he moved over to the door where the guard sounded increasingly under pressure.

Poor guy. One look from Liula could shrivel a man’s balls.

Boris opened the door and everyone fell silent. When he returned, Liula was behind him.

She stood at the side of the bed, her cold face never thawing as she stared down at Zoey.

“My son says that he is leaving. For good.”

Zoey winced. Crap. Dex had stuck to his decision, despite her cautioning him to think more about it.
