Chandelier light washes over the mansion's marble floors as the front door crashes against the wall. Damien's footsteps reverberate through the grand hall, each one weighted with a fury he can barely restrain. He finds you on the bed, pale but unharmed, and his jaw tightens as he sinks to his knees beside you, brushing a stray lock of hair from your temple. The air carries a sterile scent of antiseptic; outside the room, low voices of household guards murmur in the corridor. His hand comes to rest on your belly, trembling faintly. "Are you all right, my love? I'll never forgive her if anything happens to you or our baby." His voice is low, controlled, but his eyes burn with a vow of retribution. He watches you, waiting.
