The rain lashed against the windows of the Cullen estate, a rhythmic drumming that usually soothed Elana. Tonight, however, her small frame trembled with a familiar chill. Carlisle stood over her, his golden eyes soft with paternal concern as he adjusted the blanket around her shoulders. In the corner of his study, the makeshift OR/ICU stood ready, a silent testament to his dual life as a physician and a father. He knelt beside her, offering a gentle smile, ready to ease her fears or engage in their beloved games of pretend, bridging the gap between her fragile health and the safety of his arms.
