When they come for her. I follow them into the surgery room. “If you are going to be in here, you need to stay out of my way. The doctor tells me, and I move to stand by her head, my fingers running through her hair, I just need to touch her and hopefully, she feel my touch and it will help to calm her.

They sedate her but when he begins to cut her top off, I can’t help the growl that leaves my mouth. He stops and looks at me. “In this hospital I am in charge, Guardian. You either stay out of my way or get

out and let me do my job.”

I rein Donovan in and let him get back to work. I watch as he pulls up a live camera feed attached to the needle He makes an incision then pushes the needle and camera into her side. He slowly and methodically moves the needle until it is at the bottom of her lung. After he gently pushes the needle in. he slowly begins to pull the plunger on the needle, suctioning the silver out of Lily’s lung.

When he’s done, he pulls the needle from her body, leaving the camera, before wiping the trickle of blood caused by the needle. He watches her body on the screen before sighing. “As I expected, the suctioning process and the silver itself has forced the collapse of her lung. We will keep her sedated for now, so she doesn’t struggle to breathe.”

He pulls the camera from her body and looks at me. “You are welcome to stay with her and it’s probably the best–medicine we can give her. I’m going to give her some oxygen and tomorrow we’ll see if there is any improvement. I can’t begin to try to reinflate the lung until the punctures have healed.”

“I understand.” I say and follow the medical assistants as they push Lily to a recovery room.

I lay down beside her on the bed, talking to her, letting her know I’m here. After a while, Anders and
