“Dude,” J.J. answered on a hoarse groan. “This better be good. It’s after three in the fucking morning.”

“It’s Haven,” I told him, my voice quivering with shock and fear. “Wick won’t wake up. Now get your ass over here and help me get him to a hospital.”

“What? Oh, shit. Be there in ten.” He hung up on me, leaving me staring at an unconscious Wick and wondering if I’d ever see him alive again.

“God, Wick. Please,” I begged. “Just open those pale blue beauties for me one more time.”

He didn’t.

Beginning to cry, I rushed around the apartment, ignoring the tears on my cheeks so I could change into some clothes and put on shoes, then gather my purse and Wick’s wallet. Then I unlocked the front door so I wouldn’t ha
