"No need, you're still injured. You should go rest."

She couldn't just let them keep going at it. Taking Finnian by the wrist, Amara guided him back towards the hospital bed.

Finnian glanced down at her hand on his wrist but didn't pull away. He let her lead him.

"Take a rest, okay? I'll be back in a bit."

She gently pushed him onto the bed, tugging the covers over his legs before turning on her heel towards Keith. Her voice turned a bit more commanding.

"Come with me."

Keith lounged on the couch, lazily protesting, "I don't feel like moving."

Amara was left speechless. What a dog! She grabbed his hand, dragging him out of the room despite his reluctance.

"What the heck was that just now? Were you trying to start something?"

Amara released him once they were in the stairwell. She huffed, "Don't you think I have enough chaos to deal with?"

"How could it be? Don't get mad. I was just looking out for you, making sure you weren't getting pushed around."
