Aelin's pov:

I woke up the next morning and turned on my side to face my fae warrior, but then I remembered. That fight. I rolled out of bed and yawned. I smiled as I saw a brown bag on the table near my bed. No note. I opened the small bag and laughed. Candy. Just like when Dorian brought me it, as well as a puppy, speaking of puppy. I searched my room for the little dog. He was sitting in my closet, cuddling one of my shoes. I frowned, should I take it? Or let him sleep? I decided to let the sleeping dog sleep. Instead I went back to the bag of candy and ate as much as I could bare. The next second Dorian opened the door. "You don't know how hard it was to get that bag in here." He replied, his arms crossed across his chest. "Well, I am queen now. You would think they my guards would trust you, but ever since prince rowan put them there, 'had this distinct feeling he thinks I'm weak." "Is that what you fought about?" I winced as he asked about the fight. "What did rowan tell you?" I asked quietly. "Just the fact that you fought. Nothing else." He replied. I sighed and stared at Dorian. "When you left the castle, I growled at rowan about him being to over protective. Our argument escalated to where we were both yelling at each other. I ended up running out of the room after he mentioned Endover; I went to the library to cool down. I must have fallen asleep when the skin walkers attacked Me." it pained me to talk about it. He noticed my discomfort and offered a slight smile.
