Elysia looked noticeably unwell, her complexion pale and her body weak.

Tarquin's face was etched with concern and tenderness as he gently scooped Elysia up, lifting her in his arms to carry her to the infirmary. He carefully settled her on the hospital bed, then watched as Benjamin started an IV drip for her.

Tarquin offered a half-hearted explanation, "Lowell and Axel are on it. They don't need me there."

Benjamin glanced at Elysia, realizing Tarquin's reluctance stemmed from his concern for her.
