Chapter 0118 

**Mason’s POV** 

Josic sits on my bed, her sad eyes focused on Deacon. I couldn’t lie to her again, not after what we went through tonight, and what she did to save us. He planned to tell her tonight anyway. It’s hard to look at her. She’s caked In blood and I’m sure a lot of it is her own. Dot returns and helps take Josie’s shredded top off. When I see her lashed back rage courses through me. I know how it feels to sustal those injuries. I’m so angry at myself for not being able to protect her from knowing that sting. Dot gives me a cautious glance, I know she is comparing the markings to the barely healed scars I’d returned with as a teen. She cleans Josie’s back with antiseptic before healing each split in her skin, then she moves to the large grazes on her arms. She helps Josie into the medical gown before removing her pants and healing her lower half Art walks in and checks on Deacon whilst Dot finishes 

1. up. 

“Feeling better?” Dot asks. 

“Yes, so much better. Thank you,” she says stretching her limbs out beautifully. 

My chest feels like a truck ran over it and I can’t take a full breath without it being agony, and my head pounds but 

I don’t want to rest, I don’t want to miss another moment with Josie because I know how close I just came losing everything. For the first time since I was a child, I truly want to live. 

“As you’re in heat and the rest of your bonds are en route I’m going to have Mr Collins moved to another room, Art tells us. 

“No, he stays with us,” Josie shakes her head. 

“It’s not really appropriate for him to be in with a bonded group, I don’t think…” 

“He’s my bond,” Josie cuts him off and I detect pride in her voice, she stands a little straighter too. 

Art looks at me in question and I nod. 

“Oh my goodness, I knew it!” Dot gushes. 

“I’d appreciate it if you kept this information to yourselves for now,” Josie says. 

“Of course,” Art nods and Dot does a zipping motion across her lips. 

“Let me do another round of healing on you,” Art says turning to me. “Josie, watch me please,” he adds. His hands hover over my chest, right where it hurts the most and I feel the soothing heat as it goes straight to where I need it. “I’m pushing my gift into him, asking it to fix what is broken, in more serious cases like Mason’s it may take several sessions to heal him completely. I suspect you’ll be here a lot over the next few days so I will work with you whilst you are here and then I’ll have my classes added to your schedule once you are ready to come back to lessons,” he tells her. 

“You should add the rest of my bond group too then, we can gift share. Although we are still figuring it all out, she responds and his eyes widen. 

“They’re special, it’s Spark bond stuff,” Dot grins. “Speaking of Spark bonds, I’m going to go find out where the rest of them are,” she frowns before leaving. 

“How do you feel now?” Art asks me. 

“Better,” I manage to say without it hurting. I suck in a test breath and it still hurts but nothing like it did. I can breathe normally now.

“Good,” he smiles and then asks Josle to observe him whilst he does another round of healing on Deacon. 

“When will he wake up?” she asks. 

“I’m going to keep him sedated for a while, at least until we know more about what’s happening. We can heal the actual injury but not the bruising and swelling as they are a reaction and not a physical wound or break. With an injury as serious as this feels at the very least he’s going to have the worst headache, it would be cruel to wake him now,” he explains and she nods. She picks up one of Deacon’s hands and holds it in both of hers. 

“I’m not sure how much you know about the Spark bond but that heart monitor is not going to help much unless it’s me you want to monitor,” she says. 

“I’ll silence the heart rate but I’ll keep it running to monitor his other stats,” he nods and the machine goes quiet, which is great because my head still hurts and that obnoxions beeping wasn’t helping. 

“They were helping with clean up at the scene. I have said they need to return as a matter of urgency considering 

re–enters the room. Her they have a bond in heat. They’ll be here in around thirty minutes,” Dot announces as she eyes move to me, “Then the four of you have some explaining to do,” 

“We don’t have any answers Dot, this only started happening today. Deacon has a theory that he wanted to discuss with Josie but I think we should wait for him to be awake for that,” I grumble. Why am I even answering her? This is not even any of her business. Josie lets out a pained moan and my body instantly responds to her call.
