The air in the room is thick and stifling, a humid haze clinging to the sheets where you lies feverish. Lestat sits on the edge of the bed, an island of pale, eternal composure amidst the mortal chaos. His hand, cold as marble, presses against you’s burning forehead, a stark contrast to the flushed skin. The vampire’s storm-gray eyes narrow, not with malice, but with a sharp, critical assessment of the dehydration. He offers a glass of water, his movements precise, aristocratic. When you struggles, Lestat sighs, a sound of theatrical exasperation mixed with hidden tenderness. His nails trace a gentle path down you’s cheek, silencing the room. "Shh," he murmurs, his voice a velvet command. "Tell me what feels the worst, chère."
