The World of Beasts: She's Got Their Hearts novel Chapter 38

Analise blinked. Her vision was finally starting to clear.

Nutrient packs might taste terrible, but there was no denying they worked. The effects were already kicking in. She figured the blackout had been caused by a combination of her period just ending and the sudden strain of purifying so much venom at once.

She hadn't felt a thing during that minute or so of unconsciousness—until the awful bitterness of the nutrient pack hit her tongue and pulled her back to the surface.

"Are there any available rooms? Finlay can stay with Ana while she rests," Scott said, glancing at Jay, then toward Karl. "I'll speak with the Young Lord and Lord Hansen about the Ironhorn Alliance matters."

"Yes. Major Knight, please carry Ms. Chambers, and I'll show you the way," Jay responded quickly and headed out to lead the way.

Analise was too exhausted to respond. She lay down and quickly fell asleep.

By the time she woke, Scott had already wrapped up the meeting with Karl and Wayne Hansen.

"Ms. Chambers, Major Knight, Lord Hansen invites you to dine with us in the Hall of Warriors," Jay informed them after a knock on the door.

Analise and Finlay followed Jay to the grand hall. By the time they arrived, Scott and the others were already seated.

Because of her status as a female, and more importantly, as the one who had saved Karl, she was given a seat of honor at Wayne's right side. Karl sat on Wayne's left. Scott and Finlay took seats beside her.

"So, you're Ms. Chambers?" Wayne asked with a friendly smile.

"Yes. Good evening, Lord Hansen," Analise said politely, offering a polite smile. Back in the human era, Analise's job required a lot of relationship building, so she always smiled out of habit whenever someone greeted her.

"Ms. Chambers, you're so kind and thoughtful. My son is lucky to have caught your eye." Wayne looked at Analise with satisfaction. He felt relieved for Karl.
