“What the hell, Joshua?” I heard a low voice say.
“She’s hurt, and she needs medical attention. It looks like she’s been stabbed.”
“Call Dr. Graham, tell him what happened, and have him meet us at the house.”
“Don’t you think we should get her to the emergency room?”
“We can get back to the house quicker. Now let’s go.”
He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me down onto his lap. I felt the palm of his hand press against my wound as I flinched at the pain that shot through my body.
“Relax. We’ll get you all fixed up,” his low voice said. “Who did this to you?”
I tried to look up at him but all I could see was darkness and shadows. My eyes slowly closed until I felt his strong hand grip my chin.
“Stay with me. Don’t close your eyes. You need to stay alert.”
“I−I can’t,” I whispered.
His grip on my chin tightened as he moved my head from side to side.
“You can and you will. It’s not a request; it’s a command. Do you understand me?”
Before I knew it, the vehicle had stopped and the door opened. After being taken from the car, the man carried me inside and up the stairs.
“Lay her here, Ian, and let me do what I have to do,” I heard another male voice say.
“Is she going to be all right?” the low voice asked.
“I’ll do the best I can, but it looks like she’s lost quite a bit of blood,” he said as he cut my shirt up the side.
I tried to focus on what was happening, but I couldn’t. Between the room spinning and the blurry faces, I just needed to close my eyes. I felt a prick on my skin and that’s the last thing I remembered.
