Wind whipped past them as they raced down back roads, with Millie’s striking looks adding to Alexia’s sense of reckless freedom. The speed built with each passing moment, until a sudden swerve sent them crashing to the ground.
Alexia considered herself lucky, escaping with only a few scrapes. But Millie was hurled across the gravel, her leg slamming into a rock, splitting open with a deep, ugly wound.
Blood poured faster than Alexia had ever seen, and panic seized her as she fumbled to dial for help. Every minute felt endless. The remote location meant the ambulance took far too long.
By the time paramedics finally arrived, Millie had turned ghostly pale from blood loss.
That terrifying experience marked the first time Alexia truly understood the seriousness of Millie’s rare Rh-negative blood type.
No reserves were available at the small clinic—not even a single matching bag. Watching her friend slip into shock, Alexia desperately called her father for help, while the doctors scrambled to save Millie’s life.
A miracle brought Millie back from the brink that day, and Alexia knew she would never forget it.
Time passed, but the scar on Millie’s leg never completely faded—no matter how many doctors tried, the mark remained stubbornly present.
Determined to turn guilt into something meaningful, Millie invited Alexia to a tattoo studio, where they both chose matching designs to symbolize their survival, forever etched into their skin.
Memories like that lingered as Alexia grabbed her phone and began reaching out to every contact she could think of.
“Alexia speaking,” she said to the first responder, her voice steady. “There’s an accident—my friend is pregnant, and she could need Rh-negative blood at any moment.”
Her next call connected to the Blood Donor Network. “Yes, this is Alexia. I need support for a potential urgent case.”

“Send as many donors as possible—even if we don’t need them right away, I’d rather be prepared,” she insisted.
A soft thank-you escaped her as she realized help was lining up.
Relief crept in only after she confirmed that everyone was on alert and ready to act. Still, uncertainty gnawed at her—no one could tell her for sure how Millie was holding up.
In an attempt to steady her nerves, she turned back to the policewoman to get the full story.
What she learned left her rattled. “You mean someone actually tried to kill Millie?”
Thoughts tumbled through Alexia’s mind, each scenario darker than the last. Perhaps an old rival of the Bennett family had finally decided to settle a score. Trouble often found Millie by association, especially now that she was tied to Brandon and the powerful Watson Group.
Public outrage had reached a fever pitch since Vivian’s cancer started trending; Alexia knew how quickly online anger could turn into real-world danger. Professional jealousies, everyday arguments, and unseen grudges only widened the pool of suspects.
Anyone could have had a motive; the possibilities stretched endlessly in every direction.
