CHAPTER 14

The FH-CSI building was always lit up. As I pulled in, I saw Camille’s car, but neither Camille nor Vanzir was in sight. She’d sped down the road like a bat from hell. Chase leaped out of his car, right next to me. He met up with me and we silently jogged to the building.

As we headed toward the medic unit, I glanced at him. He wasn’t panting as much; he was having an easier time. I had set my pace briskly but held back so that he’d be able to keep up. Usually Chase struggled, but he was breathing easily at this point. But right now, Chase’s changes weren’t my main focus.

As we burst through the ER doors, I could hear shouts from one of the emergency rooms and saw two of the nurses, both elves, preventing Camille from bursting through the doors. Vanzir was sitting on one of the sofas, his head down, elbows propped on his knees.

I hurried over to my sister. “What? What have they said?”

“Only that he’s alive. He’s hurt so badly, Menolly. A splinter from the stake hit his liver or something bad like that. I know he can heal fast, but he has to stay out of danger long enough for the process to begin.” Her face was streaked with tears, the mascara leaving long trails along her cheeks. She looked stunned, like a deer caught in the headlights.

She’s in shock, I thought, and nobody has bothered to notice. With Morio’s life-threatening injuries, it was no wonder, but . . . I motioned to one of the nurses. “My sister’s in shock, I think. Can you get her a blanket?”

She nodded. “Be right back. Meanwhile, some food would probably help her.”

“She’s insane. How can I eat right now?” Camille shook her head, but Vanzir was on his feet, heading for the door. He was pulling out some change for the vending machines.

Chase joined us after peeking into the ER. “He’s alive. They’ve taken the stake out of his side and are working on his injuries. Sharah and Mallen will do everything possible to help him. Please, trust them.”

Camille sniffled and Chase handed her his handkerchief. She dabbed at her tears and blew her nose. A nurse came rushing back and wrapped a blanket around her shoulders, leading her over to a chair.

“Sit here and if you feel faint, let us know. We’re all working on your husband right now, but ask at the front desk if you need help.” She scurried away, a worried look in her eye.

Vanzir returned and handed her both a couple of Reese’s peanut butter cups and a package of cashews. “I couldn’t find a Milky Way . . . sorry. But these should help. I’m going to find some coffee for you.”

Camille gave him a long look, then accepted them and ripped open the candy, forcing herself to eat. “I do trust them—I’ve trusted Sharah with my life before. But . . . but . . . he was hurt so badly .
