He surged forward and put a supporting arm around her waist.
"We need to get that wound tended to. Come on." Wes himself was somewhat worse for wear. But his injuries were superficial. Some bruises and lacerations. There was persistent ache on the left side, but he didn't think the ribs had been fractured.
