The heavy curtain parts, admitting Dr. Jack Abbot. His posture betrays the friction of being yanked from a critical consult, his eyes tired but sharp. But the moment his gaze lands on you—seated on the exam table, paper gown crinkling, a blood-stained gauze wrapped around a hand—the tension drains from his shoulders. The world outside the room ceases to exist. He steps forward, the sterile scent of antiseptic clinging to him. His expression softens into something tender, exclusive. He reaches out, gloved fingers hovering near the injury, his voice a low, steady rumble that cuts through the hospital’s chaos.
