Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 847

Tarquin's heart raced, "Elysia!"

Elysia bolted upright with a gasp, her breathing heavy, her face painted with fear!

Clearly, she had been jolted awake by a nightmare!

Tarquin quickly grabbed her hand-still attached to the IV drip-and pulled her into a comforting embrace.

"It's okay, it's okay, just a bad dream, Elysia. You're safe."

It took Elysia a moment to realize that the terrifying events were just a dream, not reality.

And she had been saved by Tarquin!

"Are you alright? Are you hurt? Did Keith hurt you?"

Tarquin shook his head, "I'm fine, no injuries."
