Connor POV
The sound of distant voices replaces my father's. A sense of peace that I haven't felt since I sat outside that hospital room the night he died washes over me. I know I need to wake up, but I allow myself a moment so that I can enjoy the calm before I reach out to Cosmo. "I'm here, Connor. I just needed a minute. It took all my energy to fight against the vampire venom coursing through our veins," he says. "I understand Cosmo, but we need to wake up now. Goddess only knows what's been happening while we lay here and recovered."
I feel his strength flow through me and we shift. I'm grateful for the pants that Liam shoves my way, but I don't understand the smile he has on his face. That is until I turn to look at the ground around us. It's littered with the bodies of the hybrids
