| call for help and more pack members cto assist with the injured. Several of our wolves are unconscious and many are not healing because of bullet wounds. Only one looks to have been injured severely and | send him back to the pack first. I’m worried about Grace, but she seems unperturbed by the bullet in her shoulder. However, I'll feel better once it’s out. | know we were both hit by wolfsbane arrows, but other than the injury taking a bit longer than normal to heal, I’m not feeling the effects of the poison. I’m beginning to truly understand Rik and Liam’s excitement when they talk about the gifts of being mated toa Guardian. I’m stronger and my body heals faster. After a battle like this, | should be feeling exhausted and sore, but | don’t. | almost feel rejuvenated.

When we get back to the pack, we head straight to the pack hospital. When we arrive it's chaos, and not just because it’s full of wolves needing medical assistance. Connor, Thomas’s wolf is standing, guarding....something, snarling at everyone who comes near. Grace rushes up and | can hear Sirona trying to persuade Connor to let her pass.

“What's going on?” | ask, coming up behind Grace. Connor stops growling, but he doesn’t move.

“Thomas brought in one of the sprites who is badly injured. She needs medical assistance, but she becterrified when | approached her. Thomas shifted and Connor has been guarding her, not letting anyone cnear her.

As | look, I can see that the little sprite is the one that was clinging to life. Connor has put himself close enough that his tail is touching her, and it looks like she is holding it in her hand.

“Connor, stand down.” Louis commands him. He whines, fighting my Alpha command. Grace steps forward, taking Connor’s face in her hands.

“Connor. You know | won’t hurt her. Letpass.” He whines again, but his body relaxes, and he lets Grace move to the sprite. | can see the sprite twins standing off to the side, watching and holding each other in concern.

Grace walks up to the little sprite. She’s the smallest one I’ve seen so far. I’m not. sure if she’s considered a child, or if she’s just small. Connor turns to stand next to Grace as if he’s ready to step in if she hurts the sprite.

“Your nis Tula, right?” Grace says, gently reaching out and stroking the girl's face with her finger. She sniffs and looks up at Grace. “Yes.” She says quietly.

“| know you were hurt, but my Gamma, Lady Gamma Sirona, needs to look at you so she can help you heal.” Grace says, using the terms that the sprites use when they address us.

“She can't fix me” She says, so quietly | almost can’t hear her. “They pulled my wing off.” She says and | can see a tear falling down her face. The other sprites we’ve seen shine brightly, but this one almost seems like her light is dying out. | wonder if that’s how they die. Their light goes out.

Itum and walk to the nearest office. | pick up the phone and dial a number I’ve never used “Hello” 1 deep voice answers.

“This is Alpha Eli. | need to speak to King Ailduin. It’s a matter of life and death.” The phone is silent so long, I’m not sure they hung up onor not. As I’m about to hang up, a voice | recognize comes on the line.

“Alpha Eli?”

Aolis?

“Yes. My father could not cto the phone, but our warrior said this is a matter of life and death.” “Yes. My pack was attacked by hunters today.” | tell him, wanting to quickly get to the point.

“Is Lily okay? Was she injured?” He immediately asks.

No, they weren't here at the tof the attack.” | hear an audible sigh.

“However, one of the woodland sprites was injured badly. One wings was pulled off and her light, it’s dim. | think she’s dying.” “We're too far away to help. Do you know if she has a mate?”

“I don’t know, but no one has cforward.”

He sighs. “Then, there may be nothing you can do. Only a mate can help heal an injury like that.”
