Chapter 111

Elizabeth's body jerked in a series of violent convulsions, her face furning a dusky blite as though the very breath of life were slipping away.

Agony etched itself across her features, and her ragged scream ripped through the air, sending nurses and doctors scrambling to respond.

Alarms blared from both sides of her bed, the machines' frantic beeping echoing off the stark white walls, amplifying the sense of impending disaster.
