PETER'S P. O. V.
A gut wrenching howl cut through the air. Olivia, still in her fur, ran up to us. She pushed her way through her muzzle pushing under this chin. Victor didn't move. Tears started to steam down mine and Benjamin's cheeks. Victor had become a friend that I really am sad to have lost. I should feel relieved that he is gone, now there is less competition for Olivia. I just can't think that thought. Victor was a good man and a good Alpha.
Olivia keeps sniffing. She places her head against his chest. Then she changes, she looks up at us. It's like she has surprise in her eyes. She starts licking his face. It's like she is trying to wake him up. Then it dawns in on me, she must have heard a heartbeat. Why didn't we even check? I stoop down and try to see if I can feel it. It's there, it's faint but it's not gone.
"Someone get a doctor now." I am screaming desperately. I am checking if he is breathing. It is really shallow but there. I can't help but be a little happier. "You are not dying now you cocky asshole. You are going to have a pup remember. You need to pull through. You are not dying, you asshole." I start checking around his body to see where I can get the bleeding to stop.
Assessing his body I only see one really bad wound. His leg. It is bleeding really bad. I of course have nothing for a tourniquet. I use my hands to apply as much pressure as possible. It doesn't take long for my hands to be covered in his blood. The gash above his knee on his inner thigh is big enough to cause massive blood loss. Where the fuck is the doctor?
Olivia has curled up next to him. She is trying to use the mate bond to help heal him. I can see the wound trying to close, but it isn't enough. Finally after what seems like too long the doctor comes up alongside me. He is the same doctor who worked on Olivia. I trust his work. He pulls my hands off the wound and starts applying a tourniquet. Then he motions for us to lift him so that he can take him to the hospital. "There isn't a whole hell of a lot I can do here. He is going to need blood fast."
Benjamin and I try to lift him and Olivia starts growling at us. Benjamin pets her on the head. "It's OK we are going to help him. You have to help Olivia, you have to let us help." She nudges his hand but moves. Then she watches every move that we make. She doesn't want him to hurt.
Victor is rather lifeless. I see Alpha Craig come over and put his arm around Olivia. He tries to sooth her. He must be as torn up as her. All I can see as we leave the clearing is Olivia's eyes as she watches us. She begins to howl. Quite a few wolves join her. Yet her howl sounded the loudest and saddest.
