"Tyler happened! He broke in and raped her...tore into her neck and nearly killed her" snarls the Doctor, his wolf in full on protection mode. "That piece of shit" growls the Alpha, storming away. "Lock down the pack. No one goes off my land. If anyone disobeys, immediate death. Everyone is to gather in the trial square. NOW" he demands, his wolf in full control. Meanwhile, the Doctor and his assistants work on slowing the bleeding and piecing her neck back together. The Doctor elevates her legs and lays a warm heating pad over her hospital gown and gives her a strong dose of pain meds. He cleans up quietly, filling out a very detailed report which he sends to the Royal Pack with an urgent attention label.
                  The Doctor tends to Indigo throughout the night, keeping fluids flowing and pain medicine in her iv. He alternated between heating pads and ice pack for her pelvis, monitoring the dark bruises. He brushes her hair aside and sighs. "I'm so sorry Indy. You never deserved any of this...you deserve so much better than this pain. I would do anything to grant you even a bit of happiness even if it's just temporary. I'm just a Doctor though...a useless Doctor" he murmurs softly.   
                     The days pass slowly and fade into a week with no sign of Indy waking up. Two weeks after the attack, the Doctor draws blood from her while the Alpha and Luna anxiously pace outside. He starts running bloodwork and after a few minutes, he pulls his ultrasound machine over and pushes Indy's gown up, spreading the clear gel over her abdomen. He exhales as he lays the wand on her skin and starts moving it around. His movement stops as he lands on a small fetus. He closes his eyes and curses silently, cleaning Indy up before calming himself down. He lets the Alpha and Luna in and hands them each a copy of the ultrasound. "She's pregnant..." he states.
                "Goddess...is she really" asks the Luna, pale and tense. "Yes. It's been exactly two weeks since the attack. She's pregnant for sure. It's too early to tell how many or the genders, but she is pregnant" says the Doctor. "What are we going to do" asks the Alpha?  "For now, we can't do much except get justice for her. I'll keep her alive and increase the nutrients I'm giving. Until she wakes up though, I can't do anything too drastic" says Gene.
             "So be it. Tyler will be sentenced in the morning" says the Alpha. He and the Luna leave, making Gene relax slightly. He cleans Indigo's necks and puts a fresh bandage on it while adjusting her medications. "Please wake up soon Indy, everyone needs you..." he begs. The next morning, Indy's wolf suddenly starts aiding her healing process, making Indy's neck rapidly improve much to Gene's glee. He props her up in the hospital bed and starts to wean her off some of the medications. He increases her pain meds and prepares for her to wake up. That afternoon, Indigo forces her sunken in eyes open and looks around slowly. "Hey there Indy. How're you feeling" Gene asks softly? "Why does he hare me so much" Indy asks? "I don't think he hates you Indy, I think he's just too proud to admit how perfect you are. I'm so sorry for everything Indy" Gene says, looking guilty. "It's not your fault Gene...never was. How's my pup" Indigo asks, wincing at the throbbing in her head? "Your pup appears to be very healthy despite how malnourished you are. Since you've been here, you've been on a feeding tube and it's worked wonders. Twelve pounds in three weeks" Gene says.
