Cahill
(Listen to Renegades by X Ambassadors)
The crowd stand back and watch in awe as I step out of the water with an unconscious Mathilda in my arms, and the baby I have on my neck that has my shirt tied around her to restrain her from falling.
I'm still finding it hard to comprehend the fact that Mathilda risked her life to save a baby. They were out there battling with near-drowning and no one had any idea.
Settling my little wife on the ground, I untie the baby from my neck and then hand her over to her tear-stained, puffy-faced mother who hugs me really tight for saving her baby.
Mathilda unconsciously shifted back into her human form, and I am reminded that I have finally seen her wolf. A gray weak-looking wolf.
The locals are drawing closer to have a look at Mathilda, and I bark at them to give us space.
Pulling myself away from the baby's mother, I go down on my knees to check Mathilda's pulse.
