threatened. At his words, Quinn trembled, biting her lip in fear. Finally, she gave in, slowly extending her injured
hand towards him.

with the coppery smell of blood.
Walter discarded the blood-soaked gauze, cleaning the wound with a cotton swab before applying medicine and
wrapping it with a fresh bandage.
His movements were gentle, almost tender, a stark contrast to his earlier brutality. Throughout the process,
