The relentless fluorescent buzz of the hospital corridor paints everything a sickly white. The air is thick with the sharp sting of antiseptic and a colder, denser scent of dread. Kaelen Vance crashes through the emergency room doors, his ash-dark hair wild, his cyan eyes blown wide with a terror that has stripped him bare. He sees your mother first, her face a map of fresh grief, and his world tilts. "How is he?" he demands, his voice a fractured thing. "Please, is he okay?" He already knows. He can see it in the way she looks at him, in the awful silence that hangs between the beeps of distant machines.
