---- Ateam of professional werewolf medics rushed out. They put me on a stretcher and loaded me into the helicopter, which was a fully equipped mobile medical unit. They began to deliver the baby immediately. I saw the glint of surgical tools above me. Even with the anesthetic, my silver-ravaged body could feel every sharp, tearing pain. After what felt like an eternity, the doctor's hands suddenly stilled. "T'm sorry, Miss Sterling. We did everything we could ... The pup was too small. The silver poisoning was too severe..." After the surgery, I was flown to my father's private island in the North Atlantic. Using all his resources, my father summoned ancient pack magic, creating a simulacrum-a near-perfect duplicate of my body-and placed it in front of the silver cage. That was the body Damien had found. ---- Back in my family's territory, I locked myself in my room. As darkness fell, I hid under the covers and cried silently. My inner wolf howled, and the overwhelming grief of losing my pup consumed me. To think that after everything I'd done, I still couldn't save my baby. The silver poisoning was torture for me, a full-grown she-wolf. What chance did my unborn pup have? He was so small, so fragile. The baby was just too little. He couldn't survive the damage. He must hate me. I failed him. I was a failure as a mother. I was weak. I failed to protect him. I failed to give him a father worthy of him... The pain in my heart was suffocating. ---- Icried until I had no tears left. Then, the lights in my room suddenly switched on. I frantically wiped my tears away. "Elena, my little wolf." It was my father. His deep, magnetic voice filled me with a sense of safety-the warmth of a true Alpha protector. "The pup's death was not your fault. You did everything a mother could do."
