Are We Safe Yet?

Gino and I race through the halls of the hospital, running past dazed staff and pack members, to get to Athena’s room. As we reach the door, we can hear shouting, and my stomach drops thinking about what she’s done.

I barge through the door and skid to a stop when I see a pissed-off Enyo standing on the hospital bed. It buckles under her weight as she turns towards me, and her demeanor instantly changes as she dives on top of me. I try to brace my fall, but I land with a thud as Enyo starts licking my face.

“Enyo!” I say with a laugh as I try to stop her onslaught, my face wet from her licks. She stops licking me finally and barks happily at me, and Ares howls with happiness in my mind.

‘I can feel her!’ He says happily as he prances around in my mind, and I have to hold him back before he takes over.

“Enyo, what happened?” I ask.

I feel her body stiffen as she looks at me with sadness in her eyes. She lifts her head and sniffs the air, and her head turns to Ryna.
