Chapter 22 - Chapter 21 loss and recovery

Emily's pov

I woke in the hospital wing for a moment I seemed to have amnesia why was I here and how did I get here. There were so few people in here it was eerily quiet compared to the last time I found myself in the hospital wing. This time charlotte was at my side she looked disheveled, ER eyes were red and puffy with tears streaming down her beautiful face. When she says I had woken she jumped saying "oh Emily" and she swiftly came to my side and hugged me. I knew we had just lost Augustus I assumed that was the only reason she was crying.

The doctor came in with a tray coved by a cloth it was slightly bloody on the tray. Carrying this tray he came in. I now realized I was in a hospital gown and remembered all that happened but also knew I didn't know how long id truly been unconscious for or what had happened in that time. "Doctor, how long have I been out? Where is Samson? Where's that bastard James and his mother and wait where am I are we?"

"Emily I think we need to start with your own health. How are you feeling at this moment?" frustrated and slightly confused I did a physical self-mental check. I answered as I was checking "lighter and my back hurts very thirsty… I remember I hit my stomach. MY BABY!? Doctor??"The doctor waited patiently through my assessment and then took a deep breath after my small freak out. "Emily I'm sorry..." (I knew what he was saying but it sounded as though coming through a tunnel it was surreal)but your baby ..." he brought over the side table which held a tray on it covered in cloth.

"NO" I shouted looking at the tray and then the doctor then my semi-flat belly and repeated myself. "No" I burst into tears "my baby my baby" I just kept repeating myself. The doctor asked me "did you wish to give her a name? And see her?" I nodded crying messy sloppy ugly snot-filled face tears. While still screaming my baby, the doctor came and then gave me a shot in my arm and then nodded to the nurse and left. After I seemed to have calmed and quieted the nurse brought over the tray and gently took my baby and unwrapped her and handed her to me.

She was so beautiful her skin was translucent. She had no deformities or malformations she was perfect. She had all her fingers and toes. I lifted her lids open and to see her eyes which were an exact replica of her father's. Brown flakes in blue-grey swirls. I softly cried more as I held her to my chest and rocked her she had a small patch of jet blue-black hair on the top of her head. She wasn't even the length of my forearm. I brushed her paper-thin-looking skin and lifted her small forehead to my nose and lips I smelled her innocent scent and kissed her forehead.

I had to have stayed that way for hours just crying softly and holding her. Charlotte came in finally offering to take her from me as whenever the nurse or doctor asked I would refuse. Charlotte offered to place her in a beautiful yellow and pink dress with white ruffle-laced socks and pink shoes to match. I whispered "thank you" to charlotte and hugged her then my father came in and held me for a while. I had to stay in the infirmary for both my safety and my recovery's curled up like a small child while my father held and rubbed my back he said nothing but I could see tears in his eyes as well for me and the lost baby. Before I finally fell asleep I whisper to him name her Diana Lottie Evan. She would have a name before she went to the ground and she would have Samson's, she would have her father's surname.

Samson's pov

I had to find out what was happening in the coven. So I sent a hidden message to Tyler. I needed to know my mother and Emily were safe. Thank the gods and goddesses all for technology and burner phones being untraceable. After reaching out to Tyler I waited impatiently for him to meet me for news.

Tyler was only able to tell me that my small family was holding themselves up in the infirmary. Damn James and damn his mother I swore I will do anything to save my coven and my family to protect them and get revenge for my father. "Goddesses and gods please I plead beg and pray to you all keep my mother and Emily safe as well as our unborn child please" A day later Tyler met me at one of the blood bank pickups there I received the worse news of my life.

"Samson I'm sorry," said Tyler "I'm sorry about your father and I'm sorry to be the bearer of even worse news to you. Samson your daughter…." I looked at his daughter "Daughter? What do you mean my daughter?" I stopped him "Emily's only a few weeks it's too soon for our child" I replied Tyler gave me an apologetic and pitying look. "No Samson Emily was injured but she is fine now your daughter, however, didn't make it." I struggled to listen as I felt myself freefall into a deep pit of darkness and despair.

"Samson Emily her father and your mother are trapped there. They have been confined to the hospital ward Emily is in poor condition mentally and physically but maybe we can help her mentally at least. Perhaps give her some hope and you too I can take her a token or proof your unharmed to her or of your love for her?"Tyler said this snapped me out of my own hurt and I knew Emily needed to know news while I got her news she knew nothing of me and no words could be said without too great of a risk. I ripped a piece of the inside of my waistcoat off and gave it to Tyler. Looking into his eyes "protect them in my place for me please." As he made to leave I said "thank you Tyler I won't forget this" Tyler nodded and quietly slipped away I waited and soon left to a new empty building for now I couldn't risk him possibly being followed so I couldn't stay in one place I decided tonight id go through to the sewer drain just as a precaution as bad as it sounded it was probably my safest bet for rest away from the sun and to hide as a precaution.
