Chapter 365 Chapter 365 This is what I wanted. To be involved, to feel like I was part of the pack but to drive his truck while he ran at the side ofwasn't exactly what I had in mind. First it was a perimeter search followed by a territory search which I thought was the sthing but apparently not. A sigh fell from my lips.
I was bored, the weather was miserable, and I missed Alanna dearly. I jumped with the tap at the wind "I want you to go home. The weather is meant to get worse".
I wasn't going home. What would I learn if I went home? I frowned and then I felt the heat creep up the back of my neck when I realised, he was butt naked. I caught sight of his smirk but dismissed it and started the engine.
"Straight hand be careful". He tapped the side of the truck before shifting and sprinting off into the wooded area.
I was careful, I kept to the speed limit if anything I was driving slower and yet I couldn't shake the truck behind me.
Flashing lights, the tooting of the horn. I slowed down further to let it past and yet it didn't. Something felt off. My stomach tightened. The weather was bad I could barely see out my windscreen. The wipers going at full speed.
I swallowed the lump that appeared in the back of my throat.
And then everything flashed before my eyes as the truck crashed into the back of me. My grip on the steering wheel tightened as a scream fell from my lips, the truck hittingagain.

Where we lived was full of backroads and country roads and for quickness, I took the shortness route hwhich included taking the back roads. Panicked I frantically searched for my phone as I tried my hardest to keep my eyes on the road. Checking my rear-view mirror, I relaxed when I noticed the truck becoming smaller. It had stopped. Maybe it was an accident? Maybe I should have stopped? But crashing intotwice? know the road is wet and the weather is bad, but it didn't feel like an accident. Pulling into the side of the road I found my phone and dialled Jake's number.
Straight to voicemail. Of course, it's not as if he had his cell strapped to his leg. Dumping it on the passenger seat I took a deep breath before starting my engine again.
I wasn't far from home, and it shouldn't takelong to get there.
Checking my mirrors a scream fell from my lips as I was pushed forward my face bumping off the steering wheel. Screeching tyres, glass shattering, blood my blood.
I couldn't see, couldn't breathe, another smash. With my head against the steering wheel, I could feel my eyes slowly closing, everything in my head quiet. My surroundings peaceful.
Black dots danced in my vision before darkness took over.
I could hear whispering, hushed voices and ssort of beeping noise.
Where was I? A groan fell from my lips at the pain in my throat as I swallowed. I needed water.
"Leah, Leah". He squeezed my hand.
"Jake she may not be conscious yet".
"She made a noise of course she's f*****g conscious. Leah, can you hear me?".
I could hear him loud and clear. But why did he sound so worried? "I'm getting the doctor".
I gripped his hand. "Doctor?". I croaked peeling my eyes open. Why would I need a doctor? "Babe?".
"Hi". I whispered.
"We'll give you two a moment". His mom gavea soft smile as she led Jacob from the room.
"Fuck babe you scared us".
It was then that I realised I was indeed in the hospital. I lifted my hand to my face hissing when my fingers touched my nose. "I-...". I paused.
"Shh". He whispered his thumb stroking over my knuckles. "I thought the worst when I found you".
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You found me?". I frowned.
"I felt your pain". He paused before sitting on the bed next to me. "Your fear".
My heartbeat quickened as I swallowed the lump in my throats! couldn't remember, my mind blank. All I knew was I was sore and tired.
I feared the question I wanted to ask but I had to know. Chewing the Inside of my cheek Ncould already taste my tears. "The baby?".
His face fell as he shook his head. "I'm so sorry Leah, I'm so sorry".
"No, no". I cried. "Why?".
"They couldn't find a heartbeat. I'm so sorry baby".
I broke my heart right there. I sobbed on his chest until I fell asleep.
When I woke Jake wasn't beside me.
He was asleep on the chair in the corner of the om Waste of the room Xhad to pee, but I N was scared to move. I wasn't sure I'd be able to get to the bathroom on my own. And I had an IV drip in my arm.
