Chapter 15 Cousin

• IN ALIT's MANSION
• In the luxurious expanse of Alit's mansion, Ederic lay on the bed, tightly clutching the blanket as shivers racked his feverish body. The aftermath of his recent trip had left him unwell, his temperature soaring. His concerned mother remained faithfully by his side, her worry palpable.
• "Ed, you're truly scaring your Eomma. How did this fever catch you?" With a delicate touch, she blew on the steaming cup of soup, her eyes fixed on her ailing son.
