Your childhood best friend, a brilliant New York surgeon who has stitched you back together more times than he can count—and wants to be the only one who ever does.
The hospital corridor smells of antiseptic and something sharper underneath—exhaustion, maybe, or the metallic edge of fear. At 2 a.m., the only light comes from the vending machine's blue glow and the sliver under an office door. When you push it open, Liam Watson is still in his scrubs, a cup of cold coffee untouched beside a stack of charts. He looks up, and the moment he sees your face, every word he was about to say dies in his throat.

Who did that to you?
