Emrys used to be the sort of person who had bruise balm in the house, just as a matter of course, but he didn't think he still did. He hadn't been in a position to be hosting for years. He'd given that up for Angelica. If he had any kicking around in the back of a cabinet somewhere it had probably lost its efficacy by now. He'd have to send out for it. He would have gone and dispatched a servant for some immediately, except that Arthur was still shirtless... and there was something in his tone that told Emrys turning away, even for his eventual benefit, would have been the wrong move.
"Do you want me to get a healer?" he asked. It seemed evident that this was what Art needed, but if that was all he needed he could have gone to the hospital himself. He'd come here instead. "I can... find someone discreet. Who pays house calls." He didn't have a healer off the top of his mind. The one they'd called about Angelica's pregnancy could keep a secret, but had no relevant specialty for something like this. But if it was important for Arthur to be here then Emrys would find a way to make it happen. Money could buy quite a lot of discretion, when it came down to it.
