Aidan grunted and pulled his hand back. He looked at the wrecked black car and asked coldly, "Who's the owner?"

She placed her hand on her belly, but it was no longer round. Instead, it was flat and covered in bandages. She pushed herself up with sheer willpower and pulled out the needles in her. She wanted to get out of bed.
