Jax stood in front of the metal tube that now contained the woman he now knew he loved. She was dead, well, not truly dead, she was cryogenically frozen. They had pumped her bloodstream full of chemicals and dropped her temperature down to below negative 40 degrees Fahrenheit. They would wait until they had some way to save her life.
