The sterile hallway of the matching centre buzzed with quiet efficiency as Dr Patel made his way back to his office.
The fluorescent lights cast a clinical glow over the polished floors, and the faint hum of medical equipment filled the air. His mind was still on Elias, the young dominant omega whose Siren's Voice ability had just been confirmed. The boy's situation was delicate, and Dr Patel knew the implications of his status reached far beyond the walls of the centre. He adjusted his white coat, his fingers brushing against the tablet tucked under his arm, which held Elias's files that could change the course of the young man's life.
As he reached his office, a small, neatly organised space with a desk, a computer, and shelves lined with medical journals, a nurse knocked lightly on the open door. She was young, with a clipboard in hand and a nervous expression.
"Dr Patel, Elias Kane has left the centre with Jace Voss. They signed out about ten minutes ago."
