Rosaline’s technique was so precise. Could she have a background in medicine?

What other surprises does this woman have up her sleeve?

Rosaline gently blew on the injury, her voice soft as she said, “It might sting a little, just try to hold on.”

The warmth from her breath brushed against my hand, causing a light, tingling sensation that was oddly soothing.

I found myself wanting to reach out and take her hand.

However, Rosaline must have thought I was frustrated by the pain, because she quickly pressed my hand down, saying, “Don’t move, it’ll be over in a moment.”

The warmth from her touch spread through me, and I murmured, “Thank you, Rosie.”

Rosaline looked up, her expression one of shock and disbelief as she stared at me.

“Why… are you calling me that?” she asked, pulling back slightly.

I suddenly realized that this was the first time I had ever referred to her like that.

“Have we really never crossed paths before?” I asked once more.
