Ryder, Zane, Holden, Leo, and Gage came storming into the building since they were already in Concrete Row. Mateo was lifeless in my arms, blood pouring from the knife wound in his stomach. I was holding pressure like Les said, but there was just too much. Holden gently pulled me away, and I watched as Zane and Ryder tried to resuscitate Mateo while Gage held Leo as he silently cried at his brother’s side.
