Wyatt

I jolted out of a swoon to find Piper driving the Jeep through the woods like a bat out of Hell. She ripped up the road so fast she almost missed the turn-off. “Turn here!” I bellowed over the engine noise.

She nearly flipped the Jeep making the turn. As soon as she got around it, she slammed on the gas harder than ever. I never would have believed that girl could drive like that.

I laid my hand on her arm. “Slow down. We’re almost there.”

The headlights swerved around another bend to light up the cabin tucked down at the bottom of Whistler’s Gulch. She hit the brakes and the Jeep lurched to a stop. I bit down my groans of agony. At least we were here. The Clan would be safe.

Only one thing bothered me. I had to get up Smokey Ridge somehow to warn my family. I had to tell them what the Lynches were up too, and I had to alert them that more would be on the way.

I couldn’t do that in my condition, though. Piper set the emergency brake and got out. She came around to my side and grabbed me. I flinched and tried to fight her off, but she wouldn’t leave me alone. Before I could stop her, she dragged me out of the Jeep.

I locked my teeth and snarled at her, but she ignored me. I didn’t want to think about how she got so good at ignoring the groans of a man in pain. She looped my good arm over her shoulders and hauled me toward the cabin.

“Is there a key somewhere?” she panted into my ear.

“It isn’t locked,” I gasped between moans.

She balanced me on the porch while she flung the door open. It yawned into blackness, but Piper didn’t hesitate. She marched me inside and stopped in the dark.

She looked around to study the place. I struggled for the breath to tell her there was a bed in the corner, but she saw it first. She supported me to it, but when she got there, her strength gave out before she could lower me down easy. She turned my back to the bed and my weight tumbled out of her grasp.

I collapsed on the mattress howling in agony, but Piper didn’t stand around to apologize for hurting me. She barged out of the cabin and came back with that pathetic excuse for a first aid kit.

She tossed it on the bed and left again. I closed my eyes and tried to hold it all together. Pain ate away at my insides. I should have let her take me home. Screw the Clan. At least my Ma would have some painkillers to give me. She could stitch me up better than any doctor.

A hand touched my forehead. I cracked one eye to find the cabin lighted by the lamp on the table. Piper stood over me and studied me with inscrutable eyes. “You’re in bad shape. We need to get you to a hospital.
