MERIDA I blinked , the sun on my face and I squinted. My leg sting from the pain which drove through meLemuel stood awkwardly beside me, he glanced at an angry Lukan and then back to me, as though unsure whether to help me up or not. "Lukan!" I gasped, my voice cracking , this was the first time I was calling him by his name.He stood there, staring down at us, his eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched.
