"You're going to see that woman, Jessica, at the hospital, aren't you?" Elysia exclaimed, her voice rising with anger. "I won't let you go!" She knew Jessica was lying in a hospital bed, and the rapid-fire typing she'd heard from Dorian earlier had been him messaging her. There was no way she was letting him leave.
Dorian shook off Elysia's hand and went back inside to grab a pair of pajamas and sslippers. Elysia tried to snatch the clothes from him. "What are you doing with those? Planning to stay overnight?" "Let go, I'm going to stay with Jessica," he replied, his voice as icy as ever.

"His changes were so minor, but compared to before, they felt huge. I spun this story of him caring aboutout of nothing. I'm just pathetic." Seeing Elysia like this broke Amara's heart. She gently wiped away her tears.
