Mermaids in the lake (6)
"PAAAH!", Maddox inhaled loudly when he came out of the water with Tatiana in his arms.
"Max! Here!", Mindy waved from the boat. Maddox mind-linked Mindy that they were coming up to the surface, so everyone was on alert.
It took less than a second for people on the boat to see that Tatiana was non-responsive.
Paul, Nate, Axel, and Tyler swiftly jumped in the water to help Maddox.
Tony held back Kalina with, "Tanya is coming here. Wait for her."
Maddox had no intention to let anyone else touch Tatiana, but he couldn't climb on the boat with her in his arms.
Maya and Caden held Tatiana's shoulders and pulled her on the boat, and Maddox jumped on without removing his anxious gaze from Tatiana.
Maddox pushed others out of the way as he kneeled next to Tatiana who was lying on the boat's floor.
He swatted Kalina's hands away harshly and didn't pay any heed when Tony told him to be mindful of others.
