I can’t believe my eyes, I can’t believe what just unfolded before me. Was I dreaming? Or am I seeing things? Because that werelion just shifted back into human form... and it’s...
"EMILIA!" I called in a panic as I rushed to her and held her cold unconscious body, my quivering eyes darted to the arrow sticking out her shoulder. I shot her, I can’t believe I fucking shot her! It felt like a black hole enveloped my heart and I felt like I was drowning, a feeling I can’t explain hit me so hard like a hurricane and all I knew was I needed to do something.
I checked her heartbeat, she was breathing but very slowly.
"Stay with me, Emilia," I said, placing her on the ground gently before taking my jacket off and wrapping it around her petite form. I concentrated on the arrow now, it was embodied in her flesh deeply, but I have to pull it out, or else more silver will keep pumping into her bloodstream and she will die.
Just thinking about her death made my thoughts chaotic, I couldn’t think of anything other than saving her life, nothing else matters right now. I reached behind where the arrowhead was sticking out so I broke it and then grip on the arrow tightly.
"I’m sorry" I mumbled and gave a fast pull on the arrow and she flashed her eyes open, they were gleaming dangerous gold, and then she roared at me before dropping back to the ground in pain. in pain.
"Fuck it hurts!!" she groaned.
"A-Are you okay?" I asked worried and she groaned once again.
"How many pounds of silver is in this thing?" She mumbled holding her shoulder as it bled.
