face. “Don't move, baby. The doctor is on his way along with Marsha. You're going to be okay.” Tears streamed down his face. His chest had a few cuts, but nothing major. His main concern was his mate. He was sure that the baby was dead. That piece of metal had to have killed it. His heart grieved for the loss of their first child, but he had his mate, and they could have more babies.
    “How bad is she, Remi? We'll meet you at the hospital.” Dane growled
    “It's bad. She's lost the baby and keeps passing out. The pain is too much for her. Shelly has a few scratches, but everyone else is fine.
    Jaycee curled her hand into his. “Our baby, oh God, Remi, I'm so sorry!” Jaycee cried, trying to move, but she passed out again.
    Ambulances and police sirens blared in the distance as Remi held onto his mate. It was his fault. He should have never let her scoot over to him. If she had been wearing her seatbelt, this wouldn't have happened.
    Shelly's hand touched his lightly. Remi looked up into her face. “You can't blame yourself, Remi. This was the other truck's fault. She's going to need you guys more than anything right now. Jaycee will blame herself as she always does.” Tears fell down her face and she shook her head. “She has been through so much, Remi. Can't they just leave her alone?”
    Remi heard people running to them as he stood and watched the paramedics work on his mate. Soon he would hunt and nothing would stop him. These people were like bed bugs, always coming back, never stopping till they got what they wanted.
    He smiled and glanced in the direction that truck had come from. “Well, they have declared war now, and I'm just the man to stop it.” He snarled and released the powers inside him. Others around him gasped, but said nothing as he searched the woods using his sight.
    “Remi, let's go. They have Jaycee in the ambulance and Bo is here. He'll take us to the hospital.” Shelly touched his arm, but jumped back, gazing up at him in awe.
    He sighed and then harnessed his powers. “Let's go then.” He turned and nodded to Bo as he slipped into the backseat of the Blazer.

    Jaycee heard a machine beeping and her mates growling in the background. Why did she feel so sore? Her stomach hurt and so did her head. She reached up with her hand and opened her eyes. First, she noticed a bandage on her arm and knew she wasn't at home. Bright lights hung above her. She closed her eyes, and then blinked to adjust to the light. She looked down at her body in a cotton gown, and she knew she was in the hospital.
    That's when it hit her.
    “Oh, please tell me the baby's okay. Remi, our baby. It's okay, right?” Jaycee asked, her hands going to her midriff, but her hand touched only bandages. There was a pad between her legs. “No! God, haven't I been through enough?” She screamed as Remi and Dane came to her, holding onto her. Great sobs racked her body. She couldn't catch her breath.
    “Breathe, Jaycee. Come on, breathe,” Remi said, tears flowing down his face as he cupped hers. “I'm so sorry, baby. They couldn't save him.” Remi wiped the tears from her face.
    “Who did this, Remi? Who hit us? Is Shelly okay?” Jaycee hugged him tight.
    “Shelly's at the cabin, Marsha is out in the hallway. We don't know who did this, baby. It was a rental truck. We're trying to track it now.”
    “How long have I been out of it?” Jaycee asked, pulling back, looking at Mark behind Remi,. She held out her hand to him and he took it, kissing her fingers. Dane sat in the chair on her other side as Remi sat next to her right side.
    “You have been out for two days. Your body was healing itself. I'm telling you right now, you will have guards at all times, and I won't hear a word about it. You took ten years off my life, baby. When I saw you lying there in the snow, I wanted to die.” Remi laid his head down on her stomach, and tears flowed down his face as he stared up at her. She wiped the tears away,
