a path to recovery
Emily began treatment, and the fireplace was fixed, allowing her to slowly recover. ‘It’s finally over,’ John said, sighing in relief.
Max lay by Emily’s side, his watchful eyes now calm. With the source of the danger removed, peace slowly returned to their home.
‘You did it, Max,’ Emily said, petting him affectionately. The road to recovery was long, but they faced it with renewed hope, thankful for the loyal protector who refused to leave Emily alone.
