*Trigger Warning- Talks of miscarriage*
Neah
My feet carry me forward as I run. I could hear the pack calling out to me. Telling me they could help me. Telling me that Dane would be fine. He wasn’t fine. I could feel it. The pain grew stronger by the second, tearing at my heart as I moved.
‘What’s the plan?’ Nyx asks.
‘I have to find him!’ I fight back the tears
‘Neah, he left hours ago. We won’t find him on foot.’
‘I have to try.’ I break through the trees, coming to a stop at the boundary. I hadn't crossed it alone before. And all that panic I had felt months ago about stepping out into the snow was back.
“NEAH, PLEASE STOP!” Eric calls out from somewhere behind me. “Dane is alive.”
I turn to see him creeping through the trees, his eyes on the ground as he frowns. The pain moves from my heart down into my abdomen.
“You are lying.” A tear leaks from my eye and trickles down over my cheek. “I feel it.” I pat my chest. "He is dead, isn't he!?"
‘Somethings wrong.’ Nyx murmurs
“Dane is alive." Eric calls out. You were right, he wasn't. He was in a car accident. Impaled by glass, but it missed his heart. Jenson saved him” He slowly steps towards me. “I promise you, Neah. Our Alpha is alive, but right now, we need to get you to the hospital.”
“For Dane?” I whisper
“No. We need to get you checked out."
"I need to see Dane."
"I know, but right now, he is miles away and you are important.
The pain spreads further down into my hips and my thighs. It’s only then that I pick up the rusty iron smell. My eyes find the spots of blood on the grass and fallen leaves. It leads straight towards me.
“Let me help.” Eric whispers, holding a hand out to me.
He catches me just before I hit the floor. Swooping me up and carrying me in his arms with ease as he runs through the forest.
Pain radiates through me. “Am I losing them?”
Eric doesn’t answer me as he powers on and I could feel Nyx pacing in my mind. Her own worry echoing with mine.
“I killed my pups didn’t I?” I mutter to Eric
He still doesn’t answer me, but I feel him squeeze me closer to his chest, like Dane would do as my tears fall more freely.
Eric barrels us through the hospital.
“In here?” Raven shouts out.
The moment he places me on the bed, Raven is pulling up my top and scanning me.
“Well?” Eric demands
“Two heartbeats.” Raven mutters, “Two strong heartbeats.”
“Then why is she bleeding?” Eric demands
“If I knew that, I wouldn’t be running tests, would I!”
“Are you sure they are okay?” I whisper, afraid to look at the screen she was showing me.
She smiles, “They seem perfect.”
She runs some other tests, but can’t find a reason as to what caused the bleeding. In the end she tells me to go on bedrest for a few days and then she will recheck me.
“I can’t do that. Jess is missing. Dane was injured. I’ve still got Roan to deal with. And what about this stupid party tomorrow?”
“Not a fan of parties?” Raven tries to break the tension.
I glare at her, she knew I had never been to a party.
“Just take it easy between then and now. If the pain gets worse, you need to tell me. But I will stick by your side at the party. If something is wrong. I will be able to help you.”
“What’s wrong with Eric?” I mutter. He was outside the room, pacing. His arms folded up across his chest as he moved back and forth. His eyes were glazed as he links someone.
“He’s checking in with Dane.” Raven gives me a weak smile.

These new chapters ate shorter than paragraphs. Makes reading this story quite annoying at the moment...

Hi, I’m usually a silent reader, and first of all, I love the story, but is it possible to avoid the blue texts? Cuz a lot of us are missing a lot of the story due to the texts not loading. I am missing a lot no matter have many times I try to reload. If not, that’s okay as well. Thank you for the amazing entertainment and content...
Loving this story! Can’t wait for you to add more 😁...
