As soon as they reach her, Kaia gives a blood curdling scream as Hector rips the sport’s vest open to reveal the bullet wounds.
“I’m…I’m sorry..” Josie gasps out as if it was a choice to talk or breathe.
“No…Josie, stay with us.” He commands before touching the bullet wounds only to flinch back in pain.
“Silver.”
“What?” Kaia cries out as she places gentle kisses on her daughter’s head, stroking her hair.
“She needs the hospital…NOW.” He roars out and I don’t wait. He was right, if we can get these bullets out…
“Stay with me Red.” I whisper into her ear as I pick her up in my arms and start racing towards the hospital.
The entire pack follows us as we run to the direction of the hospital, their wolves’ howls a warning to the medical staff and also a prayer to the moon goddess.
I don’t stop, I keep going…her father, mother and brother running next to me as I feel her slip away in my arms.
“No Josie, stay with me.” I growl out, commanding her to not leave me alone in this world. To go where I can’t follow.
The scene at the hospital was like something out of a natural disaster movie. They weren’t ready, they weren’t even here. They were on the pack run with their alphas. The only person ready and waiting was Doctor Abel.
“Place her on here, quick.” He wheels the gurney to me, and I reluctantly place her down on it, as he gets to work.
“What happened?” He hands touch her chest, only to flinch also at the metallic poison lodged within her.
“Silver bullets, she was ambushed.”
“Silver?” He turns to me, his face one of complete horror.
