Sean glanced over my body with obvious concern before turning his attention forward again. "We'll discuss everything later. First, we need to get to a secure location. I'll arrange for a private doctor to examine you."

His arm tightened around my waist, pulling me closer until I was practically molded against his chest. The strength of his grip betrayed his fear-not of danger, but of losing me again.

"Wait," I tried once more, but Sean seemed deaf to my protests, focused entirely on getting me to safety.
