His Eagle Eyes on Me

"Stop acting like a baby," Avery said in a low and gentle voice as she wiped down Elliot's face. "Do you think I want to care for you like this? You stink of booze... Aren't you a clean freak? Was that all an act? I wouldn't even bother helping you if your legs weren't still recovering." 2

The sound of her voice calmed Elliot's breathing, and he was overcome by a sudden wave of drowsiness.

Her voice was like a hypnotic lullaby.

She finally let out a huge sigh of relief.

She sat down on the edge of the bed and glanced around the room. 2
