•Graces POV•
The pain is too much. I can't take it anymore, it's unbearable.

I try to open my eyes, but they are glued shut.

All I see is white, for a second I think I'm dead. Am I in heaven? I can't die, not now. I'm still young and I have my whole life ahead of me, and I wanted to spend it with Ethan.

The whole half of my body feels numb, from my waist down. Is that normal? Well if I'm dying I guess that does make sense.

I want to die peacefully, so I will not struggle and I will let it take me.

•Ethan's POV•

I pace back and forth, waiting for the doctors to come out and tell me if Grace is okay.

I still remember carrying Grace's limp body in my arms, the way she looked at me; as if she was going to leave me and die, and the blood covering her back which was spreading like a plague.

I look down at my hands, they are still crusted with Grace's dried blood. I'm still wearing my black gear, which is covered in mud and blood.

I sigh and walk back and forth, over and over again. I can see Drew slouched on a seat beside the doctors door.

Everyone is trying to cheer each other up by saying "at least we won the war." But for me that doesn't matter, I just want Grace to be fine.

We did win the war. All of us including the wolves and the vampires that are good and surrendered, are in the castle. I stare blankly at the walls, remembering what it was like to live here. I start to remember my mom, she was so gentle but strong. She told me before she passed, "stay brave and gentle, I can see your heart and it's filled with love and care. So make sure to give that heart to someone you truly love, and who loves you the same back." And I finally found that person with Grace.

I'm clouded and lost in my own thoughts, that I didn't realize the doctors door opened. I stop walking abruptly and go up to the vampire/doctor.

"I-is she okay?" I hear my voice say sternly and shakily.

"Well.....um-we aren't sure yet," the guy mumbles.

"What do you mean you aren't sure?"

"She did lose a lot of blood, so we will need lots more blood bags. All we know is that she broke her spine."

"H-her what?" I ask in disbelief.

"I'll get back to you as soon as we have figured anything else," says the doctor and turns to close the door.

I stare with my mouth wide open, and I feel Drew reassuringly put his hand on me. I shake it off and speed away.

I run so fast to the prison area, that I get there in a flash. I open the prison gate with the keys and I close it behind me.
