I was in the middle of changing one of Titus' bandages when the door barged open. I was startled. Panic surged through me,. thinking what happened a while ago, when the guards dragged me to face the elders, was about to happen again.

But relief washed over me when I heard the familiar tiny voices called out. "Mommy!" they shouted in unison.

I opened my arms and welcomed them into a tight hug.

"We were so scared, Mom!" Cooper said.

"I told you Mommy will be fine! Mister will not allow bad things to happen to her," Harper said.

I hugged them tighter, breathing in their familiar scent, grounding myself in the warmth of their little bodies. My hands trembled as I ran them over their backs, reassuring myself that they were truly here-safe, unharmed.

"I missed you both so much," I whispered, pressing a kiss to the tops of their heads.

Harper pulled away slightly, her sharp eyes scanning my face. "Are you okay, Mommy? They didn't hurt you, did they?"

I forced a small smile, not wanting to worry them. "I'm okay, sweetheart."

Cooper frowned, glancing over at Titus. "And him?"

I followed his gaze, my heart clenching at the sight of Titus, his face pale against the pillows, his breathing slow but steady.

"He's strong,” I assured them, smoothing the hair from Cooper's forehead. “He just needs to rest."

Harper stepped closer to the bed, her tiny hand reaching out hesitantly before pulling back. "He saved you, didn't he?" Her voice was soft, filled with something I couldn't quite place.

I nodded. "He did."

Cooper squared his little shoulders, his jaw tightening. "Then we should do something to help him, too."

I smiled at their determination, my heart swelling with love and pride. "You already are, just by being here."

They both climbed onto the bed carefully, settling on either side of me as they watched over Titus. As if their presence alone would be enough to bring him back to us.

I finally noticed Scott followed behind them. He was the one who brought them here.
