Night had fallen. After thinking it over for a while, Logan finally decided to visit Melissa.
He finished his dinner at Delicia and then stepped out, carrying a basket filled with fresh fruit. There were all kinds—kiwis, grapes, oranges, avocados, even a few slices of dragon fruit.
The streets were dark, but the sky above sparkled with stars, glowing brighter than the shadows below.
Logan walked steadily toward the Hunter Guild. Soon, he arrived and stepped inside.
After a short walk through the quiet hallways, he reached the healer's chamber.
He reached the door and gently pushed it open.
Inside, Melissa still lay unconscious on the bed, her breathing slow but steady. The faint smell of medicine and herbs filled the room. Jessi was sitting beside her, reading a small book by candlelight. She looked up as the door creaked.
"Oh… Aiden," she said softly. "You didn't eat with the others?"
