Selene feels panic rise. She taps her belly and feels a flash of fear for her pup. Suddenly, a sharp pain in her stomach forms, causing the hybrid to double over from the pain. A doctor and nurse block her view. Tears begin to flow down her cheeks as she hears the doctor. "The pup is in distress." A cold set of hands touch her shoulder, and she feels calm. A male voice mumbles something next to her, but it sounds like white noise. "Get them out of here! She only needs one mate at the moment!" The nurse yells at someone out of her vision. Her teary eyes roll to the side, and she sees Jones. He kisses her knuckles. "Selene? If you can hear this mind link, come back, doll. Your-our baby, she is in distress. She needs her mum Selene. I need you. Luke needs you. Hell, everyone needs you." Jones's deep voice flows through her head. She leans into his touch.
