The General's Daughter (Snow And Ash #1) - Plot & Excerpts
Dr. Avanti is taking notes the old-fashioned way, with a pencil and paper. “You’re really lucky you got here when you did. Another half hour and you’d have died.” Apparently I’ve been unconscious for several days. Randall nicked one of my kidneys, but he managed to miss most of the big blood vessels. Infection set in though. She takes my temperature. “I’d like you to stay a few more days if that’s okay with you.” The doctor smiles as though she’s humoring me, as though the decision is mine, but we both know it isn’t. Thanks, I mouth. I’ll bet I could talk if I try, but I don’t want to encourage questions. I’ve only been awake for half an hour or so. Apparently between the infection, the blood loss, and the damage to the kidney, they thought I was a goner. I’m glad I slept through most of it. There aren’t any pre-Ash narcotics to ease pain, and even now I’m pretty uncomfortable. She doesn’t get the hint. “Do you remember how this happened?” I turn my face to the wall.
