– CORAL –

Ram comes running toward us. Ry’s eyes are huge and filled with panic. These guys might think they are keeping things from us but we’re all aware something must be wrong with Stone, otherwise they wouldn’t be this secretive.

Ram points a finger at us. “What I need from all of you is—”

“Oh, shut up and just tell the fucking truth.” Daniela puts her fists on her hips. “Go get one of my medical bags for me while we go ahead and check on Stone, because that’s it, right? We’re not allowed to freak out because you think we can’t handle shit. He’s her old man, asshole. If he’s as bad as you make us think he is, he would damn well want her by his side no matter what.”

Ram releases a string of curses. “Erko, get one of Daniela’s bags and go around the building to find us. The rest of you, come on. We need all the help we can get.”

He spins on his heels and jumps into a run. We all jog after him but my steps falter when we round the corner and see the damage to the building and the body Jace and Dreamer are trying to free underneath all the debris.

Ry chokes on a sob beside me. Daniela switches to full work mode and I can’t imagine doing her job. It seems not much shocks her or she deals with things differently but she’s able to lock away emotions and puts her hands and brain to work.

She starts to bark out orders and when Erko shows up with her bag she rips it from his hands to dive in and slide gloves on before working on a cut on Stone’s head. I saw her check his vitals and because she’s working on the cut he must still be alive, right? I mean, she wouldn’t do anything if he wasn’t, and she can’t see his legs because part of a wall fell on him.

All the men work together to lift the heavy piece while I’m holding Ry. She’s frozen in place and I know Daniela can use this time to work on Stone but I think it’s also good for both Ry and Stone to have each other close. Even if he might not be able to hear her, I’ve always believed in a strong connection reaching out on another level. And I know these two have a deep connection.

“Come on, Ry,” I tell her but she doesn’t move.

Her eyes are filled with tears and her throat bobs but she seems miles away. I give a hard push, making her stumble. It’s all she needs to snap out of it. She rushes forward to kneel on Stone’s other side since Daniela is still tending to his injuries.

From behind me there are suddenly people rushing toward Stone. EMTs. I didn’t even hear any sirens or think to call an ambulance. Ram must have done it before he came to get the others.
