"Sonia!" he repeated, this time softer, almost pleading, as he dropped to his knees beside her trembling body.
The sight before him made his stomach twist painfully.
His gaze swept across her fragile frame, taking in every terrifying detail. She looked nothing like the woman who had left his home that morning looking radiant, composed, and full of life.
The Sonia lying before him now looked painfully weak, almost as though life itself had been drained from her within a matter of hours.
His eyes burned lightly, but Kelvin forced every emotion down and focused.
His hands immediately moved with practiced precision as he assessed her condition, slipping fully into the role he knew best.
