Please let Liam be alive.

Please, God, let him be okay.

Give me a chance to tell him I love him.

Chapter 51

Athena

I sprint through the hospital with Sebastian Wolf on my heel.

Once we pulled into a parking spot he told me where we were headed.

I was out of the car before he had his seat belt unbuckled. He called after me to get to the sixth floor.

There was a small crowd gathered at the bank of elevators in the lobby, so I took the stairs.

I’m racing forward without any clear direction.

All I know is that I need to get to the cardiac intensive care unit.

“Next right,” Sebastian yells from behind me. “Then the next left after that.”

I nod my head even though I have no idea if he’s noticing.

“Right,” he calls out as I head toward a dead end.

My boot slips on the tile floor as I turn sharply to the right.

I stop when I notice a group of people standing in what looks like a waiting area.

I recognize every face from the picture hung on Liam’s wall.

“I found her,” Sebastian calls from behind me. “That’s her.”

All eyes in the waiting room lock on me. I stare at them, willing someone to tell me where Liam is.

A short woman with brown curls approaches me with open arms. “Athena?”

I run to her because I need the comfort. I need the reassurance that the man I love will leave this hospital holding my hand.

“I’m Athena,” I whisper to her.

“I’m so happy you’re here,” she says in a gentle voice. “I’m Wolf’s mom.”

A tear falls down my cheek. “You’re his mom.”

She steps back. Her hands tremble as she cradles my cheeks. “We’ve been looking for you for days.”

Days.

How long has he been here? Why is he here?

The only thing Sebastian told me when we pulled into the parking lot was that his brother was brought in by ambulance a few days ago.

I search the faces behind her. “I want to see him.”
