"Are you alright?" He inquired, concern etched on his face, as she nodded hesitantly, fear evident in her eyes. "I'm fine," she whispered softly. "Do they hurt you?" he continued, trying to reassure her. "No," she replied, averting her gaze. "Please look at me, Elsa. Look directly into my eyes," he urged, and she shivered under his intensity.
