Helena's voice tore through the air, raw and primal, her eyes burning with a fiery rage. Her entire body was coiled, ready to strike, driven by an overwhelming need to protect someone!!

"No need to rush, Helena. Just lie back and rest," the Principal urged, her hand hovering above Helena's shoulder, guiding her back to the bed with an unspoken authority that was impossible to resist.
