"Yes, he was murdered. And the day he was murdered, he hid Cole and me in a hospital after an injury so that the killers wouldn't reach us."
Daryn's heartbeat accelerated. "Why were you in the hospital?" he asked.
Dawn rubbed her breastbone as though feeling heavy. "I was bitten by a werewolf." It was a life-changing event for her.
Daryn was bereft. His skin prickled with discomfort.
She continued, "I think my father knew about my condition. He also knew that he was about to get killed, so he protected us first." She remembered how she had heard about his murder on the TV when she had just woken up from her unconsciousness. A tear formed in her eye and it rolled out from the side. "With the help of a stranger, we escaped the hospital and then with Uncle Alvarez's help, I fled the country. Jason and Helena were after us."
