The doctor's words hit me like a physical blow. "Didn't make it?" The disbelief surged through me, quickly replaced by rage that bubbled up, boiling over. No, it couldn't end like this, not after everything.
I barely registered Aria breaking down beside me, her body convulsing with silent sobs as the reality of the doctor's words settled over us. Her pain was visible, radiating through the room, and it twisted something deep inside me. Every fiber of my being ached to make it right.
Without hesitation, I let go of Aria and stormed toward the doctor, grabbing him by the collar and lifting him off the ground. My grip was unyielding, and I could feel the heat pulsing from my clenched fist as my rage built, making my eyes blaze red.
"Bring him back," I growled, my voice low and deadly, each word dripping with venom. "Or I swear to you, I will kill you and every soul in this hospital. He isn't gone, do you understand?"
