Nurse, Conan Thorin had treated hundreds of emergency patients, but the unidentified woman brought into St. John’s after a brutal crash was different. Bloodied, unconscious, and alone, Jane Doe stirred something fierce in him before she ever opened her eyes—a need to protect her that felt less like duty and more like fate.
I leaned in, keeping my voice low as the monitors beeped in the background. “I’ve got your back, pretty angel. I won’t let any more harm come to you.” It was more than a promise; it felt like a vow. Being this close to her, I couldn’t shake the feeling that fate had thrown us together for some higher purpose. Here I was, a beast, and there she was, a beauty—our lives slammed together by some twist of destiny.
~Conan Thorin, Day Shift
