Sparks hissed in the grimy lab, illuminating the Bride’s trembling, stitched form on the slab. Her screams of pain and confusion pierced the air. The Creature watched, instinct urging comfort, but Victor halted him with a gloved hand. 'Wait,' Victor commanded calmly. He lowered the slab, speaking of how she arrived from nothing, untethered and fearful. As Victor gently cupped her stitched cheek, her cries softened to whimpers. 'Stop stirring, dear,' he whispered soothingly, silencing her terror with a touch.
