An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

At the Celestial Alliance’s Lakeshore Villa, Alicia lay unconscious on the bed. Her breathing was growing weaker by the minute.

Aurora and Brian were pacing anxiously by her side while Kenan, drenched in sweat, worked frantically.

Kenan was using his Styx Passage technique to prolong Alicia’s life, but it was barely making a difference. It could only delay her death, but it couldn’t improve her condition.

If Alicia died, he knew his own life might be forfeit as well.

“How is she, Dr. Quake? How is Alicia doing?” Brian couldn’t hold back his worry as he saw Kenan struggling.

“I’m doing my best… I’m still trying…” Kenan replied, wiping his brow. He was so nervous that his hands trembled.

If the patient were from an ordinary household, he could just say he did his best and move on.

But Aurora had made it clear that if Alicia didn’t survive, neither would he. The pressure was intense, and fear was a constant companion. All he could do was try his hardest to keep Alicia alive a little longer.

“Martha, why aren’t Faith and Dr. Rhys here yet? It’s been so long!” Aurora asked impatiently, glancing at the time.

“They should be here soon. I’ll call and check again,” Martha said. She nervously pulled out her phone and dialed Grace’s number.

Before the call was connected, two people walked into the villa.

“There’s no need to call. We’re already here,” Grace said as she and Dustin hurried into the room.
