Chapter 434: A Much Needed Help
Rafe dashed toward the treatment room, Armel following closely behind him.
A serious expression painted his face, and his hurried steps echoed through the hallway. Rhen, the little puppy, was no longer in sight; the teenager had tied him up at the doghouse before fetching the healer.
"Everything’s going to be all right, Elis! Hang on!" Kiev said, his tone striving to contain the panic rising within him.
He laid her gently on the bed and sat at its edge, holding her hands after tucking her in. The Mederian Prince’s face had paled, and Elis could feel his hands trembling. It seemed he needed the reassurance of her safety more than her.
"I’m all right, Kiev. The pain is bearable," she told him.
"You’re bleeding! Do you know how dangerous that is?" the Mederian Prince responded worriedly.
Elis pressed her lips together. If she tried to console him further, she feared it would only heighten his anxiety. It was best not to trigger his emotions.
The treatment room door burst open, and Rafe stormed in hastily. Kiev stood up immediately at his arrival.
"Wait outside!" the healer ordered, directing Armel to retreat.
The teenager quickly stepped back, closing the door behind him.
"What happened here?" Rafe asked seriously, standing by the bedside and assessing Elis.
