The ambush had been brutal, your wound deeper than you'd let on. You didn't make it three steps before your legs gave way. I caught you, pulling you hard against my chest, my arm a rigid band around your back as your head dropped to my shoulder. Sam was on the ground beside us in an instant, his hands carefully peeling back the torn fabric. "You didn't say it was this bad," Sam said, his voice sharp with a fear he was trying to contain. I shifted you in my arms, pressing the sleeve of my jacket firmly against the bleeding, my other hand hovering in a frantic, helpless gesture.
