Chapter 0042
Richard's POV
I've been sitting at Cara's bedside for hours, trading watch with Ruby. She takes a shift watching Cara while I take care of my actual patients at the hospital, then we switch, and she sees patients while I watch Cara. It leaves little time for much else, like sleeping
But Cara is worth it. Family is worth it.
Especially to me....
My heart is filled with guilt for her. It makes me pain.
Suddenly, I see movement under the blanket at Cara's feet. It's probably just a hallucination. I'm so sleep deprived, I'm not sure I can trust myself.
There it goes again, that little flicker of movement.

Every heartbeat is a reminder of what I've done to her. What Lilia has done.

I try to reassure her, crossing my fingers that she'll calm down.
