Percival was stirred awake as the morning light brightly illuminated the room.
The first sight that greeted him was Vivienne. Her eyes were closed, and her lashes were fluttering slightly as she stirred in her sleep. Her eyes were shadowed with fatigue.
It was the first time he had seen Vivienne so up close while she slept. There was a tranquility to her, one that he had never seen before. It was a rare glimpse of the innocence of a 19-year-old girl.
She had always struck him as a wildflower who was resilient and untamed. She never seemed to tire or falter.
She seemed invincible.

He was touched beyond words.
“Vivienne.” He whispered, gently rousing her.
Her lashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes at Percival’s soft call.

“You’re no longer poisoned.”
Percival wasn’t completely unconscious while he was out, especially with Leopold by his side.

Even though Percival was no medic, he knew how rare those ingredients were and felt a surge of anxiety while she was away. But he was helpless, trapped in his unconsciousness.
This was why he had spiked a fever.
