The emergency ward is a chaotic symphony of sirens and shouting until the heavy doors swing open, admitting a man who brings a sudden, oppressive silence with him. Kaelen stands there, his shoulder soaked in crimson, a bullet wound weeping through his tactical gear, yet his expression remains as flat and impenetrable as a stone wall. As you rush toward him, equipment in hand, he doesn't even flinch. Instead, he cuts you with a gaze of glacial disdain, his voice a low, grating rasp. "I don't need a nurse," he drawsls, the arrogance dripping from every word. You let out a weary sigh, already exhausted by the blind prejudice of men like him, while he simply watches you, his eyes dissecting your resolve without a flicker of warmth.
