Lemira knew the cloth was laced with chloroform, but she eventually passed out anyway.

Watching Lemira slump into unconsciousness, Caspian finally let go of her and took the napkin offered by his bodyguard.

The driver tentatively suggested, "Sir, maybe we should tie her hands, just to be safe."

After all, Ms. Lemira seemed pretty skilled.

Caspian's hand flew in a swift backhand slap, "Tie whose hands? She is my sister, Ms. Langston, got it?"

The driver quickly zipped his lips in fear.

Caspian closed the car door: "To the hospital."

He touched his swollen face.

They arrived at the hospital.

Caspian carried Lemira into a high-end private room, cheerfully announcing, "Lucian, guess who I brought?"

"Lemmy? Why did she pass out?"

Lucian was overjoyed to see Lemira but noticed she hadn't woken up.
