What mysterious affliction had befallen her?
From what origin did this excruciating pain radiate through her knees? With trembling fingers, she raised the
delicate fabric of her nightgown to reveal twin patches of livid discoloration marring both knees.

peaceful through the night? Or did another nocturnal incident occur?” His penetrating gaze sought the truth in
her expression.
Elissa’s entire body tensed, his prescient inquiry stripping away her intended concealment before she could form
a plausible denial.
