The One He Saved
He gave his life to save me.
I put my face in my hands as my body wracks with the sobs of loss.
The water turns off and a towel is wrapped around my shoulders, then June wraps her arms around me. She holds me while I sob, then stands back and takes my face in her hands.
“Now you listen to me, Olivia, ex-Luna to ex-Luna. Dr. Olander is not dead. Dr. Samuel has arrived and he’s treating him. He’s fighting for his life, Livvy, but he needs you to be strong for him. He’s been strong for you and now it’s your turn to be strong for him. Can you do that? Can you be strong for your mate? He’ll fight harder to survive if you’re there, you know he will.”
