Brooke and the doctor left, probably for the kitchen where he had attended to her. Livvy hoped that the woman's injuries were as minor as she seemed to be treating them. Doubtless, the doctor would be able to work the same sort of miracle as he had with her burns. Aside from anything else, the exhaustion, the tension, the incredible pain suffered during the confrontation with the 'burning man', Livvy knew he had been able to heal the majority of her burns.
He had healed her...
There was magic afoot, she had no doubt. It was wonderful to experience the process, whatever he did, and the knowledge and trust that Algy had in the man, enough to bring her to his home, for crying out loud. She wondered if the other three were stressing about how they were trusting her, too.
Livvy sighed and closed her eyes, until she felt a warm touch on her shoulder. She blinked at Algy and a slow smile grew for him.
“Hey,” she said, wishing her voice would sort itself out soon. At least she sounded like a quiet six-pack-a-day smoker. “Yeah, Ah feel a whole lot better. Better than Ah should, considering the amount of damage that guy, thing did to me. The doc is pretty good stuff.” Her expression became more serious. “Look, y'all don't hafta worry about me tellin' anyone about all this,” she began, wanting him to know they were safe from any investigation or public inquiry. “Ah know about magic in the world and think its just fine.”
