He still didn't move. Her heart began to palpate unevenly, occasionally skipping beats. Her hands were shaking as she placed her ear on his chest.
There was no heart beat.
She frowned, unhappy with her left ear for going deaf in this crucial moment. She turned her head to the other side so her better functioning right ear could listen to the life force of her mate.

Warm tears poured down her cheeks to his chest. "No!" "NO!" She screamed frantically. "BRIANNNNN NO, Brian No, Brian NOOOOOO~!"
Her loud sorrowful cries echoed in everyone's heart but they could only hang their heads low in sadness. There wasn't much they could do at this point.
