Hearing that shocking news, Heena literally shot upright in bed—
"WHAT?! AH!"
—and immediately collapsed back down with a cry of pain as every single muscle in her body screamed in protest at the sudden movement.
Everything HURT. Moving was AGONY.
Suddenly, the bedroom door flew open and Samuel rushed in, looking genuinely alarmed.
"What happened?! What's wrong, wife?! Are you hurt?!"
And then Heena looked at this DEMON of a man standing in the doorway.
He looked absolutely PERFECT.
Like someone had given him a luxury spa treatment overnight.
His skin was glowing with health and vitality. His hair was perfectly arranged. His robes were crisp and clean. His eyes were bright and alert.
He looked like he'd just gotten the best night's sleep of his entire life, completely refreshed and energized.
Meanwhile, Heena could barely SIT UP without feeling like her entire body was breaking apart.
