Bruce was indeed awake. "How did you do that, on the battlefield. You calmed the Hulk."
"I'm a Priestess." Billie explained. "I used my powers to calm you."
"And you could do it again?" Bruce said a little too eagerly. He was starting to understand why Fury had sent him here. This girl...was like a tranquilizer.
"Of course." Billie said. "I assumed that's why you came here."
"I think it is." Bruce smiled.

I liked this man. He was smart and strong.
He was also handsome, which didn't hurt.
"Billie..." Bruce said. "I feel safe for the first time in my life. Awake."
I pulled him into my arms. "You are safe. Rest now. Rest in my arms."
It was alright. He would be safe with me. I would help him control himself until he was whole again.
