James laid her down carefully on the bed in his master bedroom, then grabbed the first–aid kit and came back to treat her wounds.

“James, it’s okay,” Lily said softly. “You don’t have to go through the trouble. I can handle it myself.”

She already felt like she’d crossed a line tonight, clinging to him the way she had. There was no way she’d let him tend to her injuries too.

But before she could even reach for the cotton swab in his hand, he cut her off with a cool, commanding voice.

Her pale skin made the red marks stand out even more.

Fortunately, the scratches weren’t deep, and the bleeding had stopped.

After he finished treating her wounds, James was about to set the first–aid kit aside–until he noticed her eyes. Her eyes were swollen and red.

Her nose was pink, too. It was obvious she’d been through a lot tonight.
