“Stay with her, please!” Jackson barked, still unable to control his shouting. He stood up suddenly and felt his thigh muscles lock up. He ignored the pain and forced his muscles to move. He ran towards the gurney where a team of techs had been crowded around, shouting medical lingo at each other and into radios. Jackson saw from their worried faces and shouts at one another that this was much, much worse than Jules’ situation.
As he neared this group the small crowd of techs parted to allow someone to push the gurney forward towards the ambulance. He saw the reason for their concern: there was a heavily-bloodied body strapped to the gurney.
He gasped when he saw who it was.
Peter!
He choked back tears.
“How bad is he? How bad?!” he bellowed, shouting his questions at those crowded around Peter, clutching his head with both hands, as if trying to keep it from splitting open. He began to swear oaths to no one in particular as he was pushed aside by the techs who were hurriedly loading Peter up into the ambulance.
Jackson took several breaths to steady himself and focused his thoughts around something, anything. A thought burst through his panicked thoughts: Make sure you’re with Peter!
He pushed his way through the techs blocking him from the ambulance, insisting, “I’m the only one he’s got! I’ve got to be in there!”
”You can follow us to the hospital! We need to move now!” One of the techs inside the ambulance hollered back at Jackson. But with one last shove, the desperate man managed to push someone aside and then leapt into the ambulance before anyone could react to him. He pulled his knees in and heard the door bang shut as he held onto a rail on the side of the ambulance. He crawled his way to Peter’s side and squeezed the bloody hand of his dear friend. Meanwhile, the driver of the ambulance they were on backed his way between the other ambulances that had halted in haphazard fashion on either side of the driveway. The driver swung around before gunning for the iron gates of the estate, and then squealed his tires as he turned into the country road.
As this was going on, another gurney was rolled out from another ambulance as the lead tech shouted for help again while kneeling beside another heavily bloodied figure. She was pressing on a wound in the chest area of the body while gently tucking blonde hair that had fallen over the woman’s face. As another tech took over pressing on the wound with a fresh compress, the lead tech flashed a penlight into the blonde’s sky-blue eyes that she’d forced open while the other tech felt for a pulse in the blonde’s bloody neck.

Amazing beginning with the look in the future, but you or rather Tina mentioned only Angelica, where is the other child of them? ! Maybe i am too fast and will you get into that in the next chapter.
What a mess, that whole sniper attack, thank god that Diana seems to survive it.
Skydancer, you are a absolute brilliant writer! Thanks for sharing it.
Fantastic to have another post on this story!
Thank you for the look at the future to lessen our worry on the immediate storyline!
Impatiently waiting for Chapter 30!
Bravo on the epic update! Loved their unyielding love and sexy devotion even years later. Swoon.
Thanks again,

Great update. I can sense Miller is going to be trouble for Bette and Tina. In your next update, I hope you answer a question I have about Miller. If Tina originally knew Miller as Georgina Keller, a stock-broker in London, during her university years, how did TIna recognize her as “Cam Miller” in the hospital? I sense another sub-story there.
You’re right! (Minx) Answers to these and other ?s shortly when I post the last chapter in a way that I hope puts a neat bow around the whole package.
Happy New Year and welcome back. As always I am intrigued by your storybook. I am glad to see that 15 years later Bette and Tina still carry the fire of love. I know that when they had taken on the welfare of the gold and it would take a toll on them, their family and friends. Did it cost them their child? You only mentioned Angelica in the update. Poor Jackson never seemed to recover. I know that our heroines understood the risk of being guardians but did they realize the heavy cost? Can’t wait for the next update. Thank for continuing to entertain us. We are very grateful that you share your talent with us .
