Lysander couldn’t help but laugh. “You should get back to your duties. The obstetrics and gynecology department can’t be without staff.”

As she spoke, Lysander subconsciously clutched the front of her coat.

The female officer sympathetically handed her a cup of hot water. “Ms. Thorne, there’s no need to be afraid. You’re safe here.”

“Thank you.” Lysander took a sip from the cup, feeling the warmth spread through her. As she held the paper cup, her complexion improved significantly.
