Zachary carefully lifted Lenora into the car, settling her gently into the back seat, then took a close look at

her.

Her forehead was slightly red with a couple of hastily applied bandages, her left cheek was swollen with at clear five-finger imprint, and her right foot...

He lifted her right foot, intending to take off her boot. Lenora tried to pull her leg back, but he held her calf firmly.

"Ow!"

Unprepared, Lenora let out a cry of pain, her eyes welling up with tears.

Seeing her red-rimmed eyes and the look of grievance on her face, Zachary couldn't help but smile.

Lenora pulled her hand back from his.

How can he smile at a moment like this?
