Chapter Ten

When they opened the trunk to let the Jimmy out, they’d forgot he’d been bitten. By then, the sun had completely risen and the first thing he did when the rays of light hit his skin was let out a roar of blind pain as it burned his skin. Eric slammed the trunk shut again, holding his nose against the smell of cooked flesh.

“I’ll need some blankets over here!” he yelled while everyone else made their way inside. Evey and Jacob were quick to get out of the heat of the daylight while Gwen and John carried David inside.

Elaine came rushing out to have a look at him. She’d come back from the hospital along with Larry, who’d been assured by Doc that it was alright to leave Bill for the occasion.

He didn’t move to get the blankets for Jimmy, but two other men who’d been at the cabin all night did. Soon enough, they had him wrapped up and inside with the others.

There was a spare room in the basement, more of a holding cell designed to look like a spare room, in case someone who shouldn’t see it did. However, that didn’t mean it had the comforts of one. There was an old lamp on a plastic nightstand and the bed was just a small fold out cot. Another cot had to be brought in from the upstairs closet so David could have something to lay on.

Only two paintings hung on the wall to give the gray concrete slabs some decoration and the only thing new and nice looking in the room was the blue carpet. The door was made of thick wood with a steel frame, making binding anyone in the room unnecessary.

The blinds were shut for Jimmy’s sake, but enough light still penetrated the room to make it hot for him. Elaine took pity on him and brought him a bowl of ice to chew on before getting to work on David.

Gwen watched the entire thing from the doorway while biting her nails, seeing to Elaine’s needs in case she should need something to help him. She couldn’t stop staring at his bloodied face, wishing he would just wake up and tell her he was alright. The very sight of him made her stomach churn. Out of everything she’d seen and all the things she’d done for her pack, most she wasn’t very proud of, she’d never had that reaction before.

“Is he going to be okay?” Jimmy asked.

The question pulled her back to reality. It was the first time he spoke to anyone that didn’t involve raging threats or loud screaming. He’d fought and clawed the entire way into the room, not stopping until the blinds were opened just enough to let in small streams of light above his bed. One wrong move and he was toast.

The part of her that was still angry over the accident hoped he would move and burn himself. If he hadn’t stupidly grabbed the wheel, the truck wouldn’t have flipped over like it did.
