Thomas Ibrahim's wife, Tirush, was dying.

He didn't yet know. It was just another day at the hospital for him, as he prepared to give a weekly meeting for the staff, going over procedures and protocol revisions that he had made. Almost all of the first shift staff were there---Maria, the Vampire White Mage, a healer in her own right; Ayesha, her Cupid MI, who was a catalyst for Maria's spells; Sun-Mi, the accomplished Ren Xiongmao apothecist who had been taken in as an apprentice; Cosette, the Arachne surgeon and vice-director of the hospital; Lilian, the Manticore RN and anesthesiologist; Simonelle, the Vampire hematologist, and Mary, the Holstaur pharmacist.

He had made those revisions to cover his own shortcomings---his healing magic had been gone for some time now, and he had so far managed to hide it. If anyone had noticed, he wasn't aware.

This would be different, however. Tirush was gravely injured, and when the time would come for him to help her, he would have to face up to the truth. Tirush's life depended on it, and there was no guarantee that she would survive. It would take a great deal more, and that might still not be enough...
