Zane's Point of View
It has been hours since Shay was taken away from me and no one has given us any updates. Dan and Jake have tried multiple times to ask questions but no one gave us any information. They keep telling us to stay calm, that the doctor will be with us shortly.
Megan brought me a clean shirt and she and Sarah convinced me to go wash my arms and my face in the bathroom and to change my shirt as I was still covered in Shay's blood.
So here I was. I stare at myself in the mirror. I can't get the image out of my head. The image of her just sitting there, staring blankly into space while the blood stain just kept growing. I still can't understand where all the blood came from. I shake my head and splash my face with cold water. I feel like I am starting to lose it, someone better have some answers for me when I get back.
I sigh and walk out of the bathroom. I just made my way back to where the others were still waiting when the doors to the emergency room opened and Lesley walked out.
I rush over to her.
"Is she okay? Can I see her?"
Lesley holds her hand up and shakes her head..
"I'm sorry, but no. You will not be able to see her for a while. We've managed to stop the bleeding. But she has lost a lot of blood. She will need a blood transfusion."
I nod.
"Do you need me to consent? If so you have my full consent. Do what you have to. Do I have to sign anything for you?"
"Well.. The thing is.. Her blood type is pretty rare but she really needs this transfusion. Unfortunately we don't have any on hand at the moment. Best would be from a family member who's bloodtype matches hers."
She looks over to where Dan and Sarah are standing and then back at me.
"Are they her family?"
I nod and motion them over.
"Is she okay? Can we see her?"
Sarah asks worriedly and Lesley shakes her head.
"As I've said to Alpha Zane. You will not be able to see her for a while. We were able to stop the bleeding but she has lost a lot of blood. She needs a transfusion but we don't have the correct bloodtype on hand. Do you know if any of you happen to have the same bloodtype?"
"Shay and I have the same bloodtype. We've been tested before. I needed a transfusion when we were younger and she donated blood for me. I'll be happy to return the favor. "
Dan says and Sarah nods, confirming what he said.
"That's great. Thank you. We'll do the blood transfusion in an hour. I'll send one of our nurses to come get you before hand. Just for debriefing, a few check-ups and to sign a few things before the transfusion."
"Thank you Doctor."
Dan and I say at the same time.
I turn to walk back to where the waiting chair were but the doctor stops me.
"One more thing Alpha. This might be a bit difficult to hear. But the Luna and the baby are not out of danger yet. Their conditions are still pretty critical. I have to inform you, right now our main priority is to save the Luna, because if we lose her the baby has no chance at survival."
I frown, staring at her confused.
"What baby?"
Lesley stares at me for a while and then sighs.
"I'm sorry this is the way you have to find out Alpha. But the Luna is pregnant."
I shake my head.
"No.. She would've told me."
Lesley shakes her head.
"It is really early. It's possible she doesn't even realize it yet. As you know our pregnancies tend to progress a lot faster. Even faster for Alphas. I think in about two or three weeks you would've started to notice the changes."
I stand there just staring at her. My mind going blank and I am not able to form a coherent sentence.
Sarah comes to me, putting her hand on my back, rubbing it comfortingly.
"I'm sure she didn't know, she wouldn't have gotten involved in this if she had."
She says to me softly, trying to comfort me but it doesn't help. I can feel the walls starting to close in on me.
I hear her still talking tonthe doctor but it sounds like she's under water.
"What caused the bleeding? Was it the fight?"
"There was a slight tear in her uterus, which was what caused the bleeding. And yes.. It was probably caused by the trauma of the fight."
"What are the baby's chances?"
I look up at them, waiting for Lesley to answer. She sighs and shrugs.
"Anything is possible but in my honest opinion. It's not looking good. I am sorry."
I can hear my heart beating erratically, my breathing getting even shallower. I hear Sarah taking a shuddering breath next to me before nodding and giving the Lesley a weak smile.
"Thank you doctor."
She says and Lesley nods at Sarah before she turns to Dan.
"The nurse will be with you shortly."
Dan nods and Lesley leaves us.
Sarah cups my chin.
"Are you okay, son?"
I shake my head. Still not able to put two words together.
Shay is pregnant.. And she can possibly lose our baby.. Because I allowed her to have this stupid fight with my father.
My heart starts to race even more and I can't breath. Sarah tries to hold me but I shake my head, moving away from her.
"Please.. Don't.. I just.. I need some air."
I rush outside and as soon as I reach the treeline, I don't even bother getting undressed I just shift, my wolf burst out of me. He lets out a howl filled with agony and anger. I give him full reigns and we start running.
