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.

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