The Sacrifice (The Covenant)
“She finally panicked when she remembered ugly details. “Shhh, it’s me, Shawn, your cousin.”
“I’m here.” Sarah grasped at Micah’s soft words with her mind and reached for him. Shawn moved out of his way and Micah knelt next to her and kissed her hand.
“Here’s the medicine.” Shawn handed him the antibiotic.
“Get the pain medicine. It’s on the counter. Ibuprofen and Tylenol. Get both. And grab that can of topical wound spray.”
Micah gave Sarah the antibiotic then the pain medicine. He soaked her wound with the numbing spray then settled next to her and took her hand between his. He’d been feeding her soup out of cans and bottled vitamin water every fifteen minutes. He looked at Shawn who stared at him with a near enigmatic expression. Micah didn’t really blame him.
“You look like shit,” Shawn muttered.
The generic words took the edge off of the awkward satanic situation.
