"How are you feeling?" she asked, tapping Neal's forehead and checking his temperature. "Don't mind those two. Hellion was already here when you two arrived. He was busy downstairs earlier," she explained.

The Doctor paused. "You are brought here by Mr Knox's private plane. He was a little surprised so he called me when you got the fever." her eyes squinted. "And it's not a fever. It's an after effect."

Neal furrowed his brows. "What do you mean, Doctor?" he asked in a soft tone of voice.
