Sighed Quote by Rachel Hawkins
““That’s how I’d ended up lying flat on my back, Archer’s sword still clutched in my hand, my head aching. Maybe I could just li here and wait for Mom to find me. That would be convenient. I sighed as the wind rustled the leaves overhead. Yep, that was a solid plan. Lie here on the ground and wait for someone to come to me.””
