"Ugh, that's right," Cora nodded. "He took so much."
"Do you want one of these? Do you still feel faint?" Penelope grabbed a plate of cookies from beside the bed and offered them to her.
The clang of metal from elsewhere in the room caught Cora's attention, and she gasped, jumping out of bed when she realized that the lycan was here. He was in that stupid cage they had installed.
