Chapter Ten

Talia

“Talia!”

Sebastian’s voice bleeds through and I jerk my worried gaze from the blood on the floor to his blue one.

“Walk over to the nurses’ station with Den so he can have them call security. Don’t leave his side. Got it?”

My heart’s racing so fast, I feel lightheaded, but I swallow my worry and nod.

Sebastian shifts his gaze to Den. “While the nurses call security, call Calder. Tell him we need at least two more men here ASAP. Then take Talia home.”

“I’m not going anywhere!”

“I don’t have time to argue,” my husband grates, his expression scary calm.

“Then don’t!” I snap. “My aunt’s in there and we don’t know where Theo is. I’m safe with Den.” I wave him on. “Just go. We’ll do our part.”

“She’ll be safe, Sebastian.” Den looks at me, his tone focused but urgent. “We need to call security now.”

Following him, I hate that the nurse’s station is around a slight turn from the hall where my aunt’s room is located. I tell myself to keep taking steps and not let worry about whose blood is on the floor, or that Sebastian might be attacked paralyze me.

To save time, I call Calder while Den gets the head nurse to call security.

“Hey, Talia,” Calder says, sounding upbeat. “I got your aunt’s phone. I’ll get it to you tonight—”

“Something has happened in my aunt’s hospital room, Calder,” I say quickly. “Sebastian’s investigating the blood we saw under the door. He wants more security here immediately.”

“Blood? What the hell—consider it done. Is Theo backing Sebastian up? Den’s with you, right?”

“We don’t know where Theo is.” My voice starts to shake. “Yes, Den’s with me at the nurse’s station, calling security.”

“Stay with Den. I’m on my way now,” he says, the sound of a car starting up in the background. “I’ll call more men in from the car. Be there in ten.”

“Get a fucking doctor in here right now!” Sebastian’s bellow down the hall makes my heart rate vault.

“Den!” I call and thankfully he’s right with me, because I can’t hear the worry in my husband’s voice and not be there for him.

Den’s steps are brisk beside me, and once I reach my aunt’s room, it takes all my willpower not to scream at the sight of Sebastian’s hands covered in blood. He’s kneeling in the doorway with his hand over Theo’s forearm, holding his gaping wound together as best he can.

“Move out of the way, please,” an older man with wiry gray hair and a white coat rushes in to kneel beside Sebastian.

“He’s not breathing,” Sebastian says.

Quickly assessing Theo, the doctor starts barking out crisp orders to the three nurses who rushed to the sound of yells for help. “He’s in respiratory distress and bleeding out. We need to intubate him now!”

I grab onto Den’s arm and shake my head to keep from falling over. Den folds his big hand over mine as Sebastian says to one of the nurses, “Check on Mrs. Granger. Make sure she’s unharmed.”

Two security guards come rushing down the hall.
