Chapter 26

Nathan’s POV

“Alpha, it’s Emily! We found her at the bottom of the slope by the northern cliffs. She’s unconscious. We’re rushing her to the clinic right now!”

I was already running before Blake finished speaking.

Emily was hurt. I needed to see her. Asher was howling inside my head, and I could barely think.

By the time I reached the clinic, Blake, Liam, and Kane were already there.

Kane stood in front of the hospital room door, his face pale and tense. Through the narrow gap between the blinds, I saw her. Emily lay motionless in the bed. Too still. Far too still.

Jessie sat beside her, holding her hand, while Poppy paced back and forth across the room, wiping tears from her cheeks.

“Damn it.”

My fists clenched and a low growl tore from my throat. I had to force myself not to rip the door off its hinges.

“What happened?” I demanded.

Blake rubbed a hand over his face. “She fell during the wolf run.”
