Sebastian froze, Riley cradled in his arms.
He glanced down, studying her pale face in disbelief.
Even drugged and trapped in what seemed like a hopeless situation, she’d still found a way to pull through.
Riley…
Her name echoed silently in his mind, another layer of her unraveling before him.

“Understood,” Sebastian replied, his voice rough. He offered no further explanation, simply nodding to the officers. “Book him for questioning. My attorney will handle the rest. I’m taking her to the hospital now.”
With that, he lifted Riley carefully and turned toward his car.
Inside the vehicle, warm interior lighting blended with the rhythm of their breathing.
Sebastian settled her against his chest, gently brushing strands of hair from her forehead.
“Take us to the nearest private medical center,” he instructed the driver, keeping his tone low.
But as the car merged into traffic, he sensed something shift.
The woman in his arms began to stir-uneasy, restless movements that started faint but grew more urgent.
Her skin grew warmer, the heat radiating through her thin clothes and seeping into his own.
To make matters worse, one of her hands had slipped free and now slid inside his suit jacket, fumbling clumsily against his dress shirt as if searching for relief.
“Mmm…”
A pained, muffled sound escaped her lips.
Sebastian’s body tightened at the unconscious touch.
He looked down. Riley’s face was now flushed, her eyes shut but brows knit in clear distress.
It hit him then–this wasn’t just a sedative.
Rage simmered darkly behind his eyes, sharp and cold.
A hospital wouldn’t help-not like this. And having doctors and nurses see her in such a state would only fuel ugly rumors.
“Put up
the partition,” Sebastian told the driver without hesitation. “Change course–nearest luxury hotel, now.”
“Yes, sir.” The driver didn’t question it. The soundproof glass slid up, and the GPS rerouted immediately.
The back seat became a sealed, intimate space.

The air seemed to thicken as Riley’s condition intensified.
Sebastian pressed the back of his cool hand to her forehead, trying to offer some comfort.
“Riley?” he murmured. “Can you hear me?”
She didn’t answer, only nuzzled deeper into his palm, rubbing her feverish cheek against his skin as if it were a lifeline.
In a moment of quiet, he caught a faint metallic scent.
His stomach dropped. Gently tipping her face up, he took a closer look.
Her lips were swollen and marked with bites-one spot had broken the skin, and a slow bead of blood welled up.
