Excerpt from the book:

Dr Johnson didn't know the consequences of sleeping with the Capo of the Sicilian Mafia. She didn't even remember his name or face. But then two red lines and two bundles of joy later, she knew her life would never be the same again. Especially when the capo shows up at her doorstep, with a gun trained to her head.

Her smart watch, An Apple Series 4 gifted by none other than good old Sebastian Shane, beeped and she looked down at it.

[ OR08, male, 32, GSW, right leg, blood loss, conscious, vitals stable]

(GSW - Gunshot Wound)

Finally! The inner voice sighed in relief. I thought I was going to die of boredom!

"Duty calls!" River hummed as she hopped off the stool, taking a big bite off of her croissant before chucking it and her half-finished cup of coffee in the bin and breaking out in a jog.

She quickly made her way to the OR wing. And she was surprised to see no one in the waiting area. Sheesh, thank god the injury doesn't look life threatening or this might have been a problem with consents and all.

The nurse in charge, forty-three-year-old Wilma Cave, approached her with her clipboard.

"Dr. Erwin assessed him. The bullet ruptured the femoral artery and penetrated about point three inches into the femur bone." She reported.

"Okay. Is the anesthetist ready?" River asked as she made her way to the dressing room to scrub in for the surgery.

"He cannot be administered anesthetics doctor. There's cocaine samples in his blood." She shrugged; judgement clear in her voice when she said 'cocaine'. "And if we wait for the effects of the drug to wear off, there will be more complications."

"Fantastic." River nodded, pursing her lips. With the blood loss and ruptured femoral artery, she couldn't wait till the effect of the drug went down. Way to make a completely easy surgery complicated! "Not even local anesthetic huh?"

"No, not with the artery ruptured. Dr. Erwin will join you as soon as he takes care of another patient in the ER." She shook her head, her voice lacking any empathy.

Wilma Cave was one of those nurses who had seen so many deaths and surgeries gone wrong that nothing surprised them anymore. Nothing excited them anymore. And in River's opinion, that was not just sad but also dangerous. No one should ever get used to death and illness. Especially not a doctor or nurse. That was her firm belief.

"I guess he will just have to bear the pain, or lose consciousness on his own during the surgery." River shrugged as she pushed the door to the dressing room open, leaving a flabbergasted Ms. Cave behind.

Didn't see that coming now, did you? Her inner voice snickered.
