“Kenzie!” Kaiden’s voice was low but urgent. “We can’t lose them.”

“We won’t. Grayson! Get your ass over here and help me!” The world shifted, and suddenly, there was so much cold at my back that my eyes flared open. “Kaiden, get that bleeding stopped. I’m going to Jet. Keep her warm and still. And for fuck’s sake, find your clothes.”

A playful growl rumbled out of Kaiden, and then everything moved too fast for me to track properly. Kaiden was gone, saying he was going to grab his shirt and pants. Then he was there, his jacket around me, and he pulled me into his lap, wrapping his arms around me. The warmth was nice.

My eyelids drooped again, and I fought to watch Kenzie tending to Jet.

“You need to shift back if you can. The bone will be easier to set in human form. It’s…it’s going to hurt.”

A terrible howl echoed into the clearing, and my blood turned to ice. It morphed into a scream, a low bellowing of pain from a voice that I recognized.

Jet.

“Senna!”

I tried to call for him. I tried to reach out to him. But the world darkened into nothingness, and I passed out.

Chapter 26 - Jet

Pain. Endless and everywhere. It wracked through me as I allowed the wolf to slip away. He’d done a damn good job, but Kenzie was right. Having a human wrist would be easier to set, and what’s more, I wanted to be able to speak, to ask after Senna.

What did I just see?

My perception of reality was there. I knew that time had slowed. I could feel it. And I’d had to lie there and watch Kaiden tear Terrance limb from limb before Senna collapsed. I couldn’t help either of them in that state, and I could barely do anything for them now.

“Fuck!” The curse tore from me as MacKenzie wasted no time setting my limb. “Gods, Kenzie, are you trying to break it again?”

“Better to get it over with now.” She smiled weakly at me, and I could see the variety of injuries she was dealing with herself.

“Shit, MacKenzie, are you all right?” I lowered my face to hers.

She shook her head, holding up a hand. “I’m fine. No worrying about me. You’re going to need more than that, though. You’re still bleeding. The healing is…going slow.”

Wrapping my arm around her as best as I could, I squeezed. “You’re like a daughter to me, Kenzie. I’m allowed to worry. And fucking hell, yes. But I imagine substantial blood loss will do that.”

She smiled, her eyes going glassy.

“Jet!”

Kaiden’s voice tore my attention away, and I snapped back to the mess of a situation we were in. Senna was in his arms, completely passed out. I tried to stand, but my side and legs just wouldn’t have it.

“Hey, don’t try to move. We’ll need help.” MacKenzie looked up. “Grayson! Orion! Geo!”

The names of my pack felt soothing to my ears, but I still held the memory of what Leon had done.

“It was Leon. He told Terrance.”

MacKenzie’s mouth fell open. I nodded, clenching my jaw as I fought the need to growl. All of that could wait. I needed to get to Senna.

I tried to move again, and MacKenzie swatted at me. “Stop that. Kaiden, get her over here.”

Moving carefully through the snow, Kaiden brought Senna to my side. Her rose and almond scent was weak, and there was a strange tinge of ozone that filtered up alongside it.

“Did you…did you see what—”

“I saw, Kaiden.” My head lulled, my strength waning.

“Hey, now. I don’t need both of you passing out on me.”
