Chapter 0385

"She did a great job, right Doc?" He playfully asks, trying to diffuse my rising paranoia. Taking the attention off me and onto him.

"Hmmm..." She shines a small torch into Kieran's eyes, assessing him for brain injury. She then places a stethoscope to his heart before placing it back around her shoulders seemingly satisfied. She turns to Knox and me, that stern look remaining until it breaks out into a smile and I can feel the tension melt away within me.

"You should...you clearly have a gift. We will check for a head wound, thank you Josie, I can take it from here."

"And Petra?" I turn to see Petra still breathing through the mask, watching me intently. Shit...she would have seen what had happened from there.

"I will of course make sure she receives the care she needs."

A hand snakes around my lower back and lands on my hip, gripping me into him.

I'm speechless...unable to comphrehend what just happened. My eyes peering down at the palm of my hands.
