Nineteen

Bursting through the front door, Katrina rushed down to Kiera's car. A nagging feeling that she couldn't shake had been distracting her for the past hour. It wasn't until the final few seconds before Kiera's car hit the column that Katrina figured it out and ran through the house, just in time to see the car settle after the collision. She barely recognized the battered and bloodied form sitting naked and unconscious behind the steering wheel. It looked like Kiera had gone through a war. Straining her ears, she could barely hear Kiera's heartbeat. A sound like someone shouting kept drowning the precious sound out. Then Katrina realized that the shouting was coming from her, a panicked repeat of Kiera's name.

A dozen thoughts had run through her mind as she finally came to her daughter's aid. She knew that her hold on the pack was tenuous at best and she had been concerned something would finally erupt, but she never thought that Kiera would actually be attacked, and in such a violent manner. The rage that was starting to rise was suppressed by her concern for her daughter. There would be plenty of time for revenge later.

After a moment at her daughter's side, Katrina saw that it looked even worse than she had initially thought. Kiera's blonde hair, knotted up and matted with blood, looked like it had gone through a bad dye job. Her face was bruised and swollen, the dried blood giving her a ghoulish appearance. Katrina could see a massive wound on her left shoulder that appeared to be a bite mark. The wound trickled only a slow stream of blood, not because it was closing up but because Kiera's body was running out of the precious fluid.

Throwing the door over the gate and into the front yard, Katrina reached in and gently removed Kiera from the driver's seat. The car's interior was soaked in blood. Some of the deluge even managed to penetrate the light-colored leather seats. Seeing how much blood had pooled in certain areas in the car, Katrina was amazed that Kiera had any blood left in her thin body and knew that if her daughter didn't get treatment at once, she wouldn't last another fifteen minutes.

The mosquitoes, usually a pest at this time of the night, were completely ignoring Katrina and her daughter, focusing instead on the interior of the car where food came with much less risk of death.

Kiera's body was limp in Katrina's powerful arms, a rag doll, lifeless. With ease, Katrina rushed back inside carrying her precious burden. Heading for the kitchen, Katrina held her daughter with her left arm and used her right to sweep everything off the bar so she could make room to lay Kiera's body knowing that if Kiera had
