Dr. Jackson’s amber eyes stared in mine with sheer terror, stuttering his promise to save Kiya. Nurses and doctors rush past me towards my beloved, hooking her to IVs as they work quickly. Running my hand through my hair, I roar in frustration.

I don’t know how this happened! In the blink of an eye, everything changed for the worst. One moment I almost kissed Kiya for the first time, and the next, she was fighting for her life. The screams from my pack alerted me to the commotion, and there I saw Kiya convulsing in Galen’s arms.

I’ve never acted so quickly in my life in a sea of chaos. Her wellbeing became my priority as I rushed her to the emergency room. Nothing else mattered to me. The pool party was shut down at once to preserve the crime scene. This wasn’t an accident. Someone did something to Kiya.

Someone harmed my mate.

When I find the bastard, they will pay with their life. I swear on my honor!

“Neron, the investigation is underway,” Kwame told me through the mind–link. “Valerian and I are speaking to witnesses and they say before Kiya collapsed, she was at the bar.”

“Tear it apart. Investigate every nook and cranny and report back to me as soon as you find something. Don’t stop questioning, press if you must!”

A stampede of footsteps echoed behind me, belonging to Kiya’s friends, Raina, and oddly enough, her parents. “How is she?” Raina asked, throwing her hands on her knees to catch her breath.

“I don’t know. The doctors are working on her right now.” I answered, trying my best to suppress my anger. Onyx was beyond pissed. He was enraged and out for blood. Our mate being hurt was equivalent to stabbing silver in my chest, it fucking hurt! Through the bond, her pain became my pain. It was burning as if someone

lit her on fire.

The culprit is dead man. Point blank. They signed their death certificate the moment they hurt my beloved!

Kiya must pull through. She is too strong to go out like this.

My lips still tingled from our almost–kiss. I felt nothing like that before. It was like being bathed in the purest, cleanest of enchanted waters. Her body fit perfectly in mine and her scent held me prisoner. It felt right. I wanted to feel that again. I wanted her in my arms again, to touch her, to feel her, to breathe her into me.

Goddess, if I lose her again, I’ll lose my mind!

“I need to see her! Raina, let me go!” Ashley shouted, trying to push through the crowd but was held back by her daughter.
