Sleep sounds so…nice….

Goodbye…

The door bursts open.

I see shapes … faces.

Cam.

His eyes are wide as he takes in the sight of me in the tub.

Ant.

He’s rushing towards me without thinking about the mess.

Such a mess I’ve made.

Hands.

Hands touching my skin.

Warm hands on cold skin.

Jace’svoice.

Paxton’scurses.

Blackness.

I’m alone again.

Just like I deserve.

CHAPTER 29

HARVEST MOON

Jace

Sadie is in the hospital bed looking pale and tiny.

Her eyes have these dark bags under them, her wrist has black stitches in it but Ant has tucked it under the sheets because we were all just staring at it, watching the way that she has cut herself open.

All the blood in the water.

Ant’s hoodie was covered in her blood as he held her in the back of the car as Paxton broke several laws getting us to the hospital in six minutes as Ant tried to stop the bleeding.

Cameron looked like he was back in Iraq with that haunted look in his eyes.

Hell.

Last night wasabsolutehell.

I had told Cam not to bother her in the bath. I could have stopped this from happening but I had thought I was doing the right thing for our omega.

I didn’t know anything.

And now, Sadie has been knocked out since then. The four of us have stayed by her bedside waiting for her to wake up. None of us are talking about what happened but all of us are feeling half aliveafter the past few days.
