Love Unspoken

Alexander was there, providing a steady support for Quinn as he helped her sit up. He gently brought a Sebastianful of porridge to her lips, his eyes filled with concern. However, Quinn's lips remained tightly sealed, her refusal to eat evident in her stubborn demeanor.

"Come on, open up," Alexander coaxed, his voice soft yet persistent. Quinn, however, turned her head away, her resolve unwavering.

"Quinn," Alexander's voice suddenly took on a more menacing tone as he called her name, "it seems this porridge isn't to your taste." His words took her by surprise, her eyes widening slightly in shock.

He continued, his voice as cold as ice, "If that's the case, perhaps this Chef no longer needs to keep his hands." Quinn turned her head back towards him, her eyes wide with disbelief. His gaze was icy, devoid of any humor.

After a few moments of silence, Quinn finally gave in. She lifted her head and leaned forward, accepting the Sebastianful of porridge. A look of relief washed over Alexander's face, and he gently fed her, a slight smile playing on his lips. Quinn quietly ate the porridge, methodically emptying the bowl Sebastianful by Sebastianful.
