The Impact Of Lifestyle On Fertility
Introduction
Changes in lifestyle among men and women are the underlying cause of many diseases including infertility, which is often overlooked.  Stress, pub culture, late-night parties, getting up very late, fast food, etc, contribute to an unhealthy life and it impacts fertility rate too.  Increasing use of tobacco products, excessive alcohol use, overuse of contraceptives, etc, are the major lifestyle factors that have contributed to infertility. In addition to the direct impact of lifestyle on fertility, the following changes can result in medical conditions, which in turn adversely affect fertility. Conditions such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, premature ovarian failure, hormonal variations, congenital problems, etc, also cause early onset of infertility. However, these conditions are treatable and pregnancy can occur through IVF treatment.  There is a dire need to create awareness of the lifestyle risk factors contributing to infertility so as to encourage couples to seek early fertility care. Lil Feet by Altius Hospitals, with highly experienced doctors is having well-equipped facilities for IVF treatment.
Modifiable factors to address infertility issue
Lifestyle factors like age, weight, psychological stress, smoking, alcohol consumption, and exposure to environmental pollutants on the reproductive outcome are proven. It is also proved beyond doubt that modifying lifestyle factors can, not only assist couples to conceive spontaneously but also optimize the probability of conception in those undergoing ART treatment. Though people are aware that infertility is related to lifestyle factors, they falsely believe in fertility myths. Hence regular public education campaigns are necessary to avoid pseudo-protective factors like diet, misperception of the impact of age on fertility, benefits of rural living, etc.
A routine well-women health check-up is an excellent opportunity to start addressing the lifestyle risk factors that impact fertility, and Lil Feet by Altius Hospitals has various health packages at affordable costs.
Here’s how some of the common lifestyle factors affect fertility
Tobacco usage: In males, smoking cigarettes or chewing tobacco may affect spermatogenesis. Lower sperm count, altered sperm motility, and hormonal imbalance in men were reported with the usage of tobacco. In women, early menopause and increased female infertility were linked with tobacco usage.
Even passive smoking is likely to cause infertility. WHO reported in 2015 that the prevalence of tobacco use in India is at 17% and India is known to have one of the highest prevalence of smokeless tobacco use.
Alcohol consumption: Though there are a lot of bad effects from excessive alcohol use, a reduction in seminal quality, low testosterone levels, decrease in semen volume and sperm count, etc, affects fertility in men. Infertility in men is thus not an uncommon factor.  In women, it causes hormonal imbalance resulting in irregular ovulation or early menopause. Even moderate alcohol intake can impair conception.
Use of contraceptives: Frequent usage of oral contraceptives is not recommended as it causes hormonal imbalance in the body, thereby causing irregularity in a woman’s menstrual cycle affecting ovulation.
Abnormal weight: Any overweight or underweight with 10-15 % can completely derange the hormone balance of a reproductive axis and its working.
Environmental risks: Includes prolonged exposure to high mental stress, certain chemicals, extreme weather conditions, radiations or heavy electromagnetic or microwave emissions that may reduce fertility in both men and women.
Social risks: Delayed marriage and late conceptions attribute to infertility. As age increases chances of being fertile decreases, especially after 40 yrs in females, however, there still are chances or conception through IVF treatment.
Conclusion
There are many other factors that lead to infertility and the given lifestyle risk factors result in various health problems apart from impaired fertility. Notwithstanding the same, the problem of infertility is growing by leaps and bounds in the modern world, impacting health. Hence, an awareness of infertility and its causes, appropriate behaviors to prevent it and available treatments for infertility need to percolate in society. When you are looking for IVF Hospital in Bangalore, Lil Feet by Altius hospitals with the experienced specialist is the best in services

Do the galahkari have hospitals before the fall? How did they work with clan rivalry or clan wars? Were they considered neutral ground? Great work with BitW and HoT!!!! P.S did Galahd have any neutral ground?
Hello there!
And thank you very much! ^^
There are indeed hospitals, though they're known as 'healing houses'. In an event of conflict, they are considered neutral ground. Healing houses are places where no harm it to be done, it's part of the law.
There are healing houses in all larger towns and a few smaller ones staffed mostly by the Altius Clan, since their traditional occupation is healing. They work in tandem the the Patientia Clan, who make medicines, and are considered one of two neutral Clans. Meaning they generally don't involve themselves in Clan wide feuds or conflicts. (And the other Clans tend to try to keep it that way. 'Never ppiss off the healers' is a hard earned lesson.)
(The other one is Clan Arra. They're the archivists.)
A Clan War hasn't happened in quite some time, but in the event it happens, the warring parties are kept as far apart in a healing house as can be managed. The one who starts a fight gets thrown out no matter how injured they are.
The only true neutral grounds are the healing houses, the archives and the libraries. Everything else depends on the person running it.
Also, if a Bellum attacks an Ostium on Clan land, that's an issue between the Clans. If one attacks the other outside of Clan lands, then it's an issue of the island they're on and the Voice gets to deal with it. If one attacks the other on neutral gound, they're both shit out of luck.
Hope that answeres those questions. If not, feel free to drop by again.

Rules: List the first line of your last 10 posted fics and see if there’s a pattern.
(This'll be pulling from my fic on @thecat-inthehat as well, due to some being posted over there, not just ao3. I've largely been working on longform fic this past year I think. I'm not counting Cyclical Recreations on ao3, that was originally posted back in '21)
It started when the Nightingales moved into the Alley one unusually hot April evening. [dry wine rebirth, DP x DC]
The cave was quiet as the elevator’s doors hissed open, save for the slight sound of someone typing at the bat computer and a few squeaks from the actual bats that were returning for the morning. [Running on Half-Caf, FFXIV & Batman]
A soft sniffle and a gasp that was barely heard over the sirens was all that heralded Helisent’s waking. [New Players (new threats), FFXIV & Batman]
Crowe Altius woke up in a body bag, naked and cold in the Citadel morgue. [Astralfire Credence, FFXV & Code Vein]
“Whence rises one’s true strength?” The prince asked, voice hush against the cold creak of metal that surrounded them, sibilant and curling underneath the senses. (First line not technically mine, taken from canon dialogue in XIV) [Under Your Skin, FFXIV]
“Tarnished, are we?” [Queen Malapropos, Elden Ring & Code Vein]
The steady drip drip of rancid water was far from the only sound in this lonely den of Lost, yet it was the one that irritated him the most. [Raven Feathers, Code Vein]
The hospitality at the Kienkan was … adequate, given how the nation of Doma was just barely starting to pick itself up off the ground. [FFXIV Write '22, Tepid]
The waves that lapped at Elidibus’ shoes were docile, and the last storm that had blown through the region known as Kholusia was barely more than a spring squall. [FFXIV Write '22, Pawn]
Snow was starting to come down over Camp Dragonhead in a fine light dust, just heavy enough to soften the rays of the noonday sun and bring a chill to the air. [FFXIV Write '22, Onerous]
Observations: A lot of these are pretty much solid from the get go -- I don't think I reworked many of them because I knew exactly how I wanted to start something. I usually have a strong idea of the visual setting of the scene and want that to be up front, as well as a particular sound to go with it. A lot of these are also a sort of comparison of itself? Highlighting why something is wrong (9, 4) or why this might not be expected (8, 3). I also don't start fic on dialogue tags as much anymore, good job me~ I used to have a really bad habit about that.
tagging: @lynmars79 @faerantstory @barbariccia @eorzeanflowers and anyone else that might want to~ no pressure tho!

How To Make The Bones Strong And Healthy
Bone health is vital in all age groups. While bones are required for a normal structure of the body and muscles to get attached, they are also the storehouses of important minerals like calcium.  Poor calcium levels in the body, smoking & alcohol usage, lack of physical activity, old age, hormones, poor diet, etc, can make bones weaker making it necessary to consult a bone doctor.  Bone density reduces at a faster rate in women compared to men. This is because, after menopause, the oestrogen level falls. At a young age, bones have the capability of growing faster and stronger. But as you age, bones function slower and become weaker. By the time you reach the age of 30, the chances of developing osteoporosis or ‘brittle bones’ increases. This might lead to certain conditions where consulting an orthopedic specialist would be advisable to ensure good bone health.  Orthopedic Unit at Altius Hospitals is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and the best orthopedic specialists in the city.
Tumblr media
Ways to keep bones strong and healthyNutritional Diet
For the bones to be healthy, a certain variety of nutrients are essential.  These include calcium, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin K, etc. Getting enough calcium is most necessary to keep the bones strong and healthy. One way to ensure healthy bones is that there is a good amount of nutrition by consuming a calcium-rich diet. Some of the foods that we recommend you include:
Dairy products such as low-fat yoghurt or milk.
Nuts & greens to the diet such as almonds, broccoli & kale.
Other foods include salmon, sardines and soy products.
Vitamin-D
The role of vitamin D in absorbing calcium is a proven point.  Normal levels of vitamin D are equal to or greater than 20 ng/mL. When Vitamin D is lesser, it depends on the reserves in bone for absorption of calcium. Thus, a lesser quantity of vitamin D adversely affects bones. Over some time, this can lead to vitamin D deficiency and proportionate poor calcium absorption.  Thus, expose yourself to sunlight to ensure adequate supply of vitamin D to your bones.
Exercise
Exercising is one of the recommended ways to keep your bones, muscles and joints strong and sturdy. Nearly any form of exercise viz yoga and aerobics regularly, will contribute to maintaining your bone health. As you get older, you should focus on weight-bearing exercises and strength training exercises to develop bone strength and combat weakening bones.
Weight-bearing exercises work against gravity, example climbing stairs, running, walking, dancing etc. These exercise help, in developing muscle mass and bone strength by adding to bone density.
Strength training exercises also known as resistance exercises are the ones which make bone heavier as the muscles grow denser through exercises such as pushups, free weights, rowing, resistance bands, etc.
Weight Management
In line with a healthy diet and regular exercise, losing fat is another way to ensure stronger joints and bones. While losing weight is primarily for improving joint health, especially the knees and hips which are the weight-bearing joints, it can also help to ease the pressure on your entire musculoskeletal structure.
Healthy eating features a variety of healthy foods. Fad diets may promise fast results, but such diets are of no nutritional value.
Physical activity is tailor-made and depends on how much weight loss is targeted. Walking regularly is often a good way to add more physical activity to your lifestyle.
Managing your weight contributes to good health.  Obesity increases the risk of many serious ailments.  Many factors can contribute to excess weight gain including eating habits, physical activity, lifestyle, and sleep routines. Factors like genetics and chronic medications also contribute to obesity.
A BMI of 25 and below is ideal. If obese, aim towards this.
Quit smoking
Smoking is a known risk factor for osteoporosis. Nicotine and other chemicals in tobacco slow the production of osteocytes. They also hinder blood flow to your bones compromising their development.
Cut on added sugars
By adding sugars, we mean the extra sugar that you add to the table.  Sugar can cause your body to flush out bone-strengthening calcium and magnesium or prevent intestinal absorption of calcium or can render important nutrients from your diet ineffective to be absorbed.
Conclusion
Bone health is very essential to maintain normal structure of the body and movements.  Monitor your bone health by consulting the orthopaedic specialist at any of the branches of Altius Hospitals.

Managing Gestational Diabetes
Introduction
When a woman becomes pregnant, some women who do not have diabetes can develop it. The body of the pregnant woman develops a decreased sensitivity to pancreatic insulin also known as gestational diabetes, especially in the second and third trimesters. As a result, blood sugar levels rise, which can negatively impact both the pregnancy and the health of the unborn child. It is therefore important to have routine tests at a maternity hospital to ensure that your blood sugars are in the normal range.  In the world, one in ten pregnant women has diabetes, and of them, 90% of cases are caused by gestational diabetes, according to research from the National Health Mission (NHM).
Managing Gestational Diabetes
The pancreas secretes a hormone called insulin, which helps blood sugar enter body cells where it may be used as energy. Women create numerous additional hormones during pregnancy. These have an impact on how well the body responds to insulin, which causes a condition known as insulin resistance. To combat insulin resistance, the pancreatic insulin-producing cells become more active in response. According to certain studies, it is observed that Indians struggle more than other populations to produce insulin in response to pregnancy-related insulin resistance because South Asians have fewer insulin-producing cells. Most pregnant women do not develop gestational diabetes symptoms or may mistake them for pregnancy-related ones. Therefore, it is advisable to visit a gynaecologist at a nearby maternity hospital to help with diabetes management if so diagnosed.  Risk factors could indicate to the doctor about the possibility of gestational diabetes. These include having a pre-diabetic condition, having a close relative who has had diabetes and leading a sedentary lifestyle. The risk factors for this disorder also include nutritional deficits, gestational diabetes from a prior pregnancy and polycystic ovarian syndrome. However, for the majority of patients, gestational diabetes is diagnosed based on a screening test that monitors how the body reacts to sugar.  Lil Feet by Altius Hospitals is one of the best maternity hospitals, and has packages for regular screening tests to keep track of your health condition.
Pre-eclampsia is a significant pregnancy condition that produces high blood pressure and poses a threat to both the mother’s and the unborn child’s lives. Pregnant women with gestational diabetes are at an increased risk of developing pre-eclampsia. It is therefore important to talk to your doctor about diabetes management.  Women who have had gestational diabetes are more likely to develop it once more if they become pregnant again. With age, they also have a larger risk of getting type 2 diabetes. Prenatal diabetes may potentially have an impact on the infant. Being overweight during birth, which might harm the baby during delivery, is the main complication of this disorder. High blood sugar can cause early labor, which could lead to premature birth. Preterm infants may experience severe respiratory issues and hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Obesity and type 2 diabetes can develop in a baby as a result of gestational diabetes. A stillbirth or infant mortality may occur if a severe case of gestational diabetes goes untreated.  It is therefore extremely important to visit a maternity hospital such as Lil Feet by Altius Hospitals and talk to a gynaecologist about diabetes management, and ensure a safe and healthy pregnancy and delivery.
Prevention and management
When it comes to gestational diabetes,the strongest evidence-based strategy is true “self-care,” which involves making sure to eat well and exercise. These can help women who are at risk of gestational diabetes, while some women with gestational diabetes may benefit from taking medications.  About 85% of them can successfully manage their blood sugar levels by making simple lifestyle changes. Modifying how we eat or making even minor replacements can have a significant impact on our general health. Eating foods with high nutritional content and in balanced proportions is crucial. Physical activity through exercises, yoga, and sports like cycling and swimming are crucial components of diabetes management. Women can strive to start their pregnancies at a healthy weight and concentrate on adopting long-lasting dietary and lifestyle adjustments. Regular doctor assistance and consultation are essential during the entire process and it is necessary to have a monthly checkup in a maternity hospital.
Conclusion
For Indian women, the risk of getting gestational diabetes has increased. Many women can effectively prevent and treat this condition by making evidence-based lifestyle modifications. Exercise and dietary changes of any size can have a significant influence. If you are looking for a maternity hospital near you, then Lil feet by Altius Hospitals is the one as it is one of the best maternity hospitals in Bangalore.

Febuwhump 2022, Too Weak To Move - Summary:
Nyx screamed. His back arched off the ground as he clawed at his clothes fervently before hands caught his and forced them down. He writhed, his whole body heaving and moving with breathless gasps when his screams died down. The hands held tight, kept him pinned. Voices were speaking, hushed and alarmed, but the words meant nothing to him. Besithia’s manic laugh echoed in his ears. “N-no!” Nyx moaned. His feet fought to fight purchase on the hard ground, and his leg throbbed with pain. Nothing worked. “Dra’tos, help!” His skin was on fire.
Read below the cut or on AO3
Nyx jolted out of oblivion with a breathless whimper, trying to escape the pain. He wanted back. He didn’t want to feel. Everything hurt. His skin prickled, burned. He was frozen but hot. Another miserable noise escaped his lips, tears trailing down his face.
“Hang in there, Nyx,” a soft voice murmured, and the grip on him tightened. Nyx’s head lolled weightlessly against something firm and warm. He shivered. Cold, he was so cold. “Shh, we’ll be at the haven soon.”
“Marshal!” someone shouted. Nyx shrunk further into the arms that held him as the voice pierced through his skull with more unintelligible words. In response, his stomach twisted and turned, and the sick feeling within him grew. He wanted to sleep.
“No, you need to stay awake for us, Nyx. No sleeping,” the first voice told him. It was soft, safe. Just like Cor. Nyx missed Cor. Something brushed his hair, but the sensation soon faded alongside everything else.
***
Nyx screamed. His back arched off the ground as he clawed at his clothes fervently before hands caught his and forced them down. He writhed, his whole body heaving and moving with breathless gasps when his screams died down. The hands held tight, kept him pinned. Voices were speaking, hushed and alarmed, but the words meant nothing to him.
Besithia’s manic laugh echoed in his ears.
“N-no!” Nyx moaned. His feet fought to fight purchase on the hard ground, and his leg throbbed with pain. Nothing worked. “Dra’tos, help!”
His skin was on fire.
He was on fire.
Something cool touched his face, and a strangled noise tore from Nyx’s throat. His eyes fluttered open but he could see nothing but darkness and blurry figures. MTs. Soldier. Besithia? His eyes grew damp as he shook his head from side to side in misery. His voice was barely audible but he still begged. “H-help!”
His stomach churned. There was something in there. Something foreign and wrong, fighting to get out. It hurt so much. He couldn’t take it. He wanted the pain to stop.
“Get– get it out,” he pleaded with tears streaming down his face. “Please!”
Nyx jolted forward with a broken noise as sharp pain slashed through him. The hands twisted him to his side just as something clawed its way up his throat.
He blacked out.
***
The ground was shaking.
Nyx groaned, tossing his head around restlessly. He didn’t feel good. He brought his hand to his face, but was stopped short by a hand curling around his wrist, eliciting a startled gasp from him. His eyes looked around wildly before focusing on a dark figure above him. It had Cor’s features. A pleading sound left his lips.
“I’m here,” Cor said, calm and gentle. His other hand cupped the side of Nyx’s face but he flinched away from it.
“Not here,” Nyx whispered. “‘s a trap.”
“You’re not there anymore, Nyx, you’re safe now,” Cor told him and brushed his thumb over Nyx’s cheekbone. The love and gentleness behind the gesture had breath catching in Nyx’s throat. He was real?
“Yeah, it’s really me,” Cor reassured him with a small smile. “Your friends are here, too. Pelna?”
Someone shifted on Nyx’s other side and he tilted his head in the direction. Pelna was there, sitting on a bench. Van bench. Nyx blinked blearily. He thought it meant something, but he was too tired to make the connection. “Pel?”
“Hey there, Hero,” Pelna greeted him with a tiny smile. “You gave us quite the scare.”
“Oh?” Nyx frowned. Just then the surface under him rocked violently and prompted a pained noise from him. There was a sound like tires screeching, and suddenly someone was shouting. He was only able to pick up on one word, and it sent a stab of fear through his heart.
“MTs!”
Cor swore, and Nyx thought he might have ordered Pelna to stay behind, but he was spiraling too hard to notice anything else. A door was flung open and daylight filtered in. Something beneath Nyx’s skin recoiled and he made a strangled groan as his eyes fluttered back shut. Pelna was trying to speak to him, but Nyx couldn’t hold onto a word he said as his consciousness slipped from him in a haze of pain.
***
Nyx flinched as a bright light was shone into his eyes. He shook his head with a whine, but cold hands on either side of his face stopped him. There were urgent shouts all around, overlapping and turning into mush in Nyx’s ears as panic overcame him. His heart thundered against his chest, the sound of blood rushing in his ears almost louder than the people, but no matter how much he tried, he couldn’t get his limbs to respond.
“Cor,” Nyx gasped. He needed to know Cor was okay. “I need–”
There was the sound of crashing before someone cursed loudly. “Keep him still! We need that blazed sedative, now!”
“Nnh, no,” Nyx mumbled. Cor was safe. He needed Cor. He didn’t trust these people. “Cor.”
In the end there was nothing he could do before he felt a prick on his skin, and something cold entered his bloodstream. A distressed whine left his lips but it was only moments later that the sedative took effect and dragged him under.
***
The dark was shallower, this time, though, and he kept skimming the surface of consciousness. Never enough to actually do anything, even speak or think, but it was more. Sometimes he could hear voices or feel a touch. Those moments brought him peace.
There was a hand in his, the thumb gently rubbing his knuckles. “How is he?”
“He has endured an incredible amount of trauma in the past weeks, and it’s difficult to say –”
The voices drifted away.
*
Another time Nyx could hear Crowe’s voice. She was bitching about mission reports and something about the council, but after a short while Nyx found himself being pulled back under.
*
The moments never lasted long. Minutes at the most. Sometimes, very rarely, he was alone, caught in the world of agony before his pain medication was adjusted, but most of the time there was someone there with him.
This time, there were no friendly voices.
People were rushing around. Machines were blaring. There were touches, so, so cold against his skin. His muscles were seizing. He wanted to scream but no sound came out. His blanket was ripped off.
“– the fever down, now!” A hand touched his forehead. “He’s burning up!”
“Where are the cold packs?”
The moment the freezing packs were placed on his skin, he sunk deeper into the dark.
*
“Cor, you need to rest.”
Nyx recognized that voice. The curiosity was enough to tug him closer to the surface, and it almost felt like his hand twitched.
“I have,” Cor sighed, a twinge of frustration to his voice. He sounded tired. Nyx felt tired. “I have been resting.”
“That armchair doesn’t make a good bed,” Regis said. “You should head home, my friend, get a good night’s sleep. The doctor says he isn’t going to wake up anytime soon.”
“I’m not leaving him,” Cor snapped. A hand fell over Nyx’s own and squeezed, tension running beneath the skin. Cor’s hand. Nyx concentrated on the feeling. He wanted to help.
“Cor–”
There was a sharp intake of breath from Cor. “Nyx! Regis– He squeezed my hand. Nyx, are you–”
The dark drew him back in again.
*
Cor was reading to him.
Nyx didn’t have the energy to concentrate on the words for long, but just the sound of his voice put him at ease. A deep sense of longing weighed his heart. He missed him so much.
Cor read to him on multiple occasions. Most of the time Nyx drifted off before too long, but slowly he could hang onto Cor’s voice longer and stay closer to the surface.
One time their storytime was interrupted by someone entering the door. Cor stopped talking abruptly, and there was a moment of silence before the newcomer spoke.
“The test results came back negative. Mr. Ulric doesn’t have the starscourge.”
“Thank the Six.”
*
Once Nyx surfaced enough he thought he could hear a very familiar snoring. Libertus. It filled him with the urge to roll back over and go to sleep, so he let himself sink back into unconsciousness.
*
*
Nyx shifted on the soft surface with a soft exhale. He was warm. He pushed at the blanket, weak and uncoordinated. Everything felt so heavy, too much so for him to move. A clang from somewhere startled him, and his eyes fluttered open to a stark white ceiling. Nyx frowned, a noise of confusion leaving his lips as he realized it wasn’t the ugly concrete ceiling he had been staring at for the past weeks.
“Nyx?”
Nyx twitched. He turned his head towards the voice. His breath hitched slightly as he saw Cor, and his hands tightened around the blanket.
“You’re awake.” Cor stood up from his chair and crossed the gap between them. He sounded almost doubtful, as if he wasn’t sure Nyx was really there, really awake. His hand hovered over Nyx, hesitating, before touching his forehead. He smiled softly. “Your fever is down. How are you?”
“Cor?” Nyx’s voice was quiet and hoarse. Cor’s hand lingered, brushing against his cheek, and Nyx swallowed at the sudden onslaught of emotion that washed over him. The touch felt real. It was so soft and gentle, unlike anything he had felt in a long time. But it couldn’t be. He remembered an airship. Besithia.
“Yeah, Nyx, it’s me,” Cor said. He glanced down at the edge of the bed and sat down. His hand wrapped around Nyx’s and squeezed. “You’ve been unconscious for a while, it’s okay if you’re still feeling groggy.”
Nyx shook his head the tiniest bit. His heart ached. “Cor? You can’t– no. Not here. ‘s not possible.”
“Nyx, hey, listen to me,” Cor told him. His other hand found its way back to his face. “You’re not there anymore. We’re at a hospital, okay? Have been for a while. You’re safe.”
Nyx frowned, a whine-like sound leaving his lips. A faint memory of being read to flashed before his mind. He leaned into Cor’s touch, wanting – praying – for it to be real.
“Look,” Cor said and lifted Nyx’s hand in the air to point out an IV in the crook of his elbow. “That IV is there to put fluids into you and to keep your pain level manageable.” He laid Nyx’s hand back down and reached for the other. “Pulse oximeter. There, on your other side is a heart rate monitor. You’ve got an oxygen thingy under your nose. You’re not there any longer, you’re safe.”
Nyx cracked a small, tired smile. “I don’t think it’s called that.”
“What? You don’t think it’s called ‘oxygen thingy’? Do I need to call a nurse and ask them?” Cor smiled back at him. After a moment he leaned down and kissed him on the forehead. “Do you believe me?”
Nyx looked at Cor, his eyes tracking his expression carefully and taking in his familiar features, from the faded scars to the slightly overgrown stubble and beautiful blue eyes. He was scared it was all a hallucination and he would wake up in a cell, all alone. He exhaled shakily, but nodded. “Yes.”
“Good,” Cor said. “You’re safe, I promise.”
Something ice cold twisted inside Nyx as memories flashed before his eyes. He gripped Cor’s hand tightly. “But Cor, if I’m here, Drautos–”
“I know,” Cor cut him off before he could continue further. His hand brushed through Nyx’s hair comfortingly. “We know, the King does as well. You don’t need to worry about him anymore, he won’t hurt anyone ever again. I promise.”
Nyx watched Cor, and saw no sign he was lying. He nodded. “Okay.”
Cor smiled, and this time brought their lips together in a gentle kiss. Nyx’s eyes fluttered shut, overcome with a deep sense of belonging and love. When Cor pulled back, his smile was even wider, and he ran his fingers through Nyx’s hair. “Get some more sleep, I can tell that you’re tired.”
“Cor–”
“I’ll be here when you wake up, I promise,” Cor told him. “I’m not leaving you ever again.”
“I missed you,” Nyx whispered, eyes shining with tears. “I– I thought I would never see you again.”
“I’m here,” Cor reassured him and pressed a kiss to the corner of his lips before straightening back up. He pulled the armchair right next to the bed, taking Nyx’s hand in his. “I’m here and I’m not letting go. You can rest.”
Nyx drew in a shaky breath and nodded. “I love you.”
“I love you too.”
