Chapter 52 : Callian's Intentions
The car screeched to a stop in front of the hospital. Callian jumped out, cradling Eira tightly in his arms as he rushed toward the entrance.
"Help! I need help!" he shouted as he burst through the doors.
Immediately, two nurses ran over with a stretcher. Callian carefully laid Eira down, his hands lingered for a second on her arm.
One nurse looked at him. "Are you family?"
Callian nodded. "I'm her husband."
The nurse nodded briskly. "Come with us. We'll get her checked in."
He followed the stretcher, watching as they wheeled her down a long corridor, disappearing into a set of double doors.
He stood there for a moment, lost, staring at the doors as they swung shut.
Then, a voice cut into his thoughts. "Callian."
It was Mita, leaning against the wall, arms crossed, a small smile appeared at her lips.
