* The SUV jarred me and Chloe Cross as it bounced over the concrete entrance to what could only be considered a mansion of epic proportions. The land around it was perfectly manicured and the grass was greener than any I'd ever seen. The mansion was made of white stone and I prayed there was a damn hospital on premises. Chloe wasn't fairing very well. As soon as the SUV pulled up to the front steps, the doors were opening and we were surrounded by security guards. Morelo was short as he growled out orders. I held tight to Chloe. Morelo wasn't a good guy depsite the situation we were currently in. * Ballast! Get Dr. Pinkerton here now! * I watched as a man moved to do his bidding. I climbed out of the SUV holding Chloe. * Is there somewhere we can take her? * Morelo gestured a woman forward and I followed her inside. I didn't have much time to look around but what I did see was a home of high taste. The room I was led to was small, but clean. I laid Chloe on the small cot. * Get some hot water and clean towels. * I had no idea beyond that what I was doing. Morelo came in then. * The doctor is on his way. * My mind raced with the different things we could do. I stood up. * You're a vampire? * Morelo nodded. * And Chloe, she's your daughter? * He seemed impatient. * What does this have to do with anything? * I rubbed a hand down my face. * Your blood...it can save her. At least help close the wounds. * He shook his head. * It could kill her! Shes a shifter. * I argued back. * But she's your blood. We have to try! At this point, she'll die anyways if we wait much longer. Just open a vein and feed her. * Morelo looked at me and then at Chloe. * You don't do this, you can explain to Vincent that you're to blame for his mate dying. Because you were too pussy to step up and take a chance! * I was being a dick and I didn't care. Morelo growled, his eyes turning a metallic red before me. His fangs elongated and he bit his wrist. I knelt down, bringing Chloe's head up in support as he maneuvered the bleeding wounds against her blue lips. I used my finger to swipe a few drops across her tongue. * Come on, come on, come on! * I demanded. The door banged open but Morelo and I remained focused. * What the fuck are you doing? * Vincent Gaines growled out. * Saving Chloe. * I snapped back, watching as the blood slid down her throat. I moved back as Vincent knelt down beside her, taking over holding her as Morelo let his blood drip down her throat. *

* I held my shock in at what was happening before my eyes. Would vampire blood heal her? I prayed to the fates that it did because I'm not sure the world would survive the wrath of Vincent if she didn't survive. The room was full of pacing males, wolves and vampires alike. Vincent continued to hold Chloe, his eyes closed, I could only assume that he was talking to her through their bond. I wished Jordan and I could communicate like that, I'd love to hear her voice right now. The last time I called she hadn't answered. The doctor had made his way into the room and took in the state of the room. * "Don't just stand there you jack ass, examine my daughter! If she dies, so will you." * Now was a fine time for the male to decide that Chloe mattered. He should have reached out to her many years ago, saved her from Ricky then. * The Dr. snapped to attention, sweat already beading up on his forehead and above his lip. He took the washcloths from the basin and rang them out. Looking at Vincent he asked a silent question and Vincent nodded. He removed the towels and moved the bloodied clothes out of the way. Wringing out a washcloth he gently wiped away the blood from her abdomen where the wound was. His breath hitched and we all stopped moving. Vincent and Dr. Pinkerton looked at each other and both +Beck Hadrian and Morelo approached them. * "My blood?" * You could tell Morelo was shocked. Beck looked at him and nodded. Looking over their shoulders I was surprised to see her wound was on the verge of healing. It was like you could see it repairing itself. Dr. Pinkerton shook his head slowly. * "I say we wait, give her a little time to heal herself, I can examine her then and see if she has healed inside and out."
ReplyDelete* I stood beside Slade and was just as amazed as everyone else that Chloe was healing so fast. I've never been around vampires, or seen what the healing effects of their blood could do. Dr. Pinkerton said to let Chloe rest and he'd make sure she was healing on the inside too. I figured she had to be for the wound to knit together like it was hell, even some of her bruises seemed to fade. We were all collectively holding our breath, waiting and watching Chloe when suddenly her eyes opened wide, like a scared deer. She managed to look up at Vincent and he kissed her forehead. Chloe must have realized she was safe because she relaxed in his arms, fuck..we all finally relaxed a bit.*
ReplyDelete* An unfamiliar scent surrounded me, cedar I think? I was in someone's embrace and we were on the move. Muffled shouts reached my ears, I couldn't make out the words, but picked up on the urgency. The pain I felt was excruciating and my attempts to reach out to +Vincent Gaines had failed. Needless to say I was terrified. I knew I was dying and I wasn't ready to leave my mate. I fought the darkness, but couldn't break the surface. My mind was foggy, my limbs heavy. I wanted to yell at who ever kept moving me, It hurt. Finally the movement stopped and I was placed on something soft. There were more shouts I couldn't comprehend and then something covered my mouth. Something warm dripped into my mouth. It was tangy with a strong sweet flavor. Familiar, though I wasn't sure how. It donned on me that it was blood, I knew instantly it wasn't Vincent's. His was strong and spicy, I began to panic as the blood began to bubble in my veins, it heated almost to burning, but then the pain I was feeling before began to subside. * ~"Chloe baby, hang on. You fight for me. I'm sending you all the strength and love I can. Fight, little wolf."~ * Vincent! Suddenly an energy zipped through me, I sucked in a breath and opened my eyes, never feeling anything like that before. I focused on the green eyes of my mate's wolf. Vincent kissed my forehead, and I relaxed. Knowing I was safe and finally out of pain, I let the darkness overtake me. *
