He said, “Secure the delivery suite and restrict all unauthorized access immediately,” while the city blurred past outside the armored windows.
Adeline clung to his coat and whispered, “I am scared of losing everything right now,” while he answered without hesitation, “You will not lose them while I am standing here.”
The hospital entrance was surrounded by security personnel who immediately recognized Lucien and stepped aside without question as he carried her inside.
