Chapter twelve

Ryan sat on the hospital bed with his knees clutched to his chest. He hurt all over and all he wanted was Bob. His hand went to his belly as he sobbed; he had lost his child. He knew Doll had caused him to miscarry; that kick she had given him must have been enough to kill his baby.

He looked up as Doctor Carden entered and Ryan sighed as he held out a glass of disgusting green slop to him. Ryan hated having to drink that stuff; it was called Kilanter and it helped a vampire produce more blood if they were injured. It was highly toxic to humans, but for some reason it was good for a vampire even though the taste of it was vile.

Ryan took the glass and closed his eyes as he drank the Kilanter. He shuddered and for an awful moment he thought that he was going to throw up, but he managed to keep it down.

“Good boy,” Doctor Carden smiled.

Gerard was totally shocked when he listened to what Gabe was telling him on the phone. He couldn’t believe that Doll had the nerve to even turn back up, never mind do that to Ryan.

“So wait, you’re telling me that some human scum had the nerve to rape Ryan, and to top it all he was pregnant and lost the baby,” Gerard growled. He classified Ryan as part of his clan and he took it personally that someone had dared to hurt him.

Surprisingly, it was pretty much unheard of that a fertile would get raped in that way. A vampire would call it hate rape and to a fertile it was the worst thing that could happen to them.

“Have you caught them; the fucks that did this to Ryan?” Gerard spat, wanting nothing more than to torture them for hours.

He listened when Gabe explained that Pete and Ray had gotten Doll, but not the shit that had actually raped Ryan.

“I’m on my way over.”

“Gerard what’s up,” Frank said coming to stand near Gerard, a blanket wrapped around him as he looked up at his husband.

Gerard looked at him and he really didn’t want to get Frank upset, but Frank knew something horrible had happened.

“It’s Ryan. He’s been attacked. I’m going over to the hospital,” Gerard answered.

“What? I’m coming too,” Frank gasped, his eyes going wide with disbelief.

“Baby you need your rest,” Gerard sighed, even though it would be probably the only time that Frank wouldn’t do as he was told. After all Ryan was his best friend.

“Gerard, I’m coming,” Frank said, his eyes meeting his husband's.

“Okay, Frankie.”

Bob was beyond furious when he reached the hospital. He had to stop and try to calm down. He would save the rage for when he got his hands on the scum that had dared touch his mate.

He went to the front desk and asked for Ryan before he took off down the corridor towards where he was pointed.

Ryan looked up as Bob burst into the room. He knew he looked a mess, and he
wanted to turn his battered face away from Bob. He couldn’t help thinking about what Raven had said to him. Before he passed out Raven had looked down on him and said that “No one would love him again.” Before the vile human had spat on him..

“Please don’t look at me,” he whimpered, sobbing and letting his hair fall over his face.

“Baby, oh my Ryan,” Bob gasped, looking at the broken fertile on the bed. His mate looked so fragile. Not at all like his sometimes feisty mate that had a sarcastic streak.

“ Bob…” Ryan sobbed harder and Bob couldn’t contain himself has he wrapped his mate in his powerful arms, being careful not to hurt Ryan any more.

“Bob, he said no one would ever love me again,” Ryan sobbed into Bob’s muscled chest.

“Ryan, look at me baby,” Bob whispered tenderly, lifting Ryan's face. He felt his heart breaking as he looked at the black eyes and cuts on his beautiful mate’s face. “Ryan I will never stop loving you. No matter what.”

“Bob, make me forget,” Ryan whispered.

Bob pushed Ryan’s fringe out of his bruised face before meeting Ryan's dark eyes before he slowly lowered his head and his lips met Ryan’s. “Baby, whatever that bastard said to you, rest assured that you are the most beautiful boy I could ever wish for and I love you more than anything.”
