A strand of hair had come loose near her temple, sticking to her flushed lips, giving her a touch of disheveled beauty.

Her eyes, still misty from the recent fever, looked innocent.

It seemed that her persistence had finally paid off.

Chandler pressed his lips together, his deep eyes locking onto hers for a moment before he looked away again.
