Chapter Thirty Seven

I felt no pain, and it was strange; I had just been shot, right?

There was a loud thud as a body fell right beside me.

During their little arguments, someone had walked in; they hadn’t been quick enough to notice it. But it was the last person I expected to see.

Beatrix.

Behind her, Thane and Axel walked in; their eyes were coal black, and their gaze never met mine, but I could see the anger and fury in them.

“Axel, take her away,” Thane ordered, and Axel finally turned to me; he picked me up easily and led me away from our room.

I couldn’t believe it; I was safe.

Axel walked into a very unfamiliar room, and there was a maid there tidying up the space.

“You. Get out,” he says. I had never heard Axel sound so furious, and I had to remind myself that Axel couldn’t hurt me.

The maid scurried away as he placed me on the bed.

His gaze swept down my body, he slightly lifted my gown, and his hands grazed down my body, checking for injuries.

“What did they do to you? Are you hurt?”

“No, I am not. They didn’t do anything; you all arrived in time.” 1
