“We haven’t found anyone else. But you didn’t say if they hurt you. Can I take a look?” Elijah asks. He’s as well trained in first aid as some medical students. They avoid hospitals when they can.


“I tried to fight, but the alpha ordered me to hide after I got hurt. I…You don’t say no to the alpha,” Jayden explains, but he finally moves his legs enough for them to get a clear look at his chest.


The cuts are deep enough that they might require stitches, and if he passed out, he probably has a concussion as well. Joshua can see a lot of smaller injuries that a werewolf like Jayden will be able to heal quite quickly.


“We’ll have to do something about the cuts on your chest. Do you hurt anywhere else?” Elijah asks.


“Does your pack have a doctor they use?” Werewolves avoid mainstream doctors as much as, if not more than, most hunters do. It would be hard to explain to an ER doctor how a fourteen-year-old got his chest clawed open.
