Chapter Ten

Lake came awake with a start. Her heart pounded in her chest, and she felt like she was running, not lying still in the bed. With a jolt, she sat up. What the hell was happening? Was this the first stage of whatever they had done to her?

Her body shook, and perspiration dripped down her back. She gripped the bed covers. Seconds later, an extreme pain raked across her skin. She howled as the rest of her body exploded in pain. Burning, striking, and tearing at her body.

And then abruptly it stopped. The pain in her body ceased, and, although she shook from adrenaline, her heart rate slowed.

She grabbed the blanket and yanked it over her sweat-drenched body. Elation pulsed through her veins, and she let out a sigh. Where there had been pain now there was nothing except a deep, warm sense of contentment. She laughed aloud before she covered up her mouth to stop the sound.

Alone in her room, she felt she must be insane, screaming and laughing. She rubbed at her face. How had she gotten into Beaux’s bedroom? The last thing she remembered was…hand-fucking him in the library. He must have carried her. She took a deep breath. Whatever had happened, it had passed.

Where was Beaux? Why hadn’t he stayed?

She got out of bed and made her way into the bathroom. A hot shower would wash away the sweat. After letting the water run for a few minutes to get it heated up, she got under the spray.

What had occurred? Was it the insanity coming? She grabbed some of Beaux’s shampoo and rubbed it around her head. Immediately she felt overwhelmed by the smell of him.

Lake closed her eyes. The spray of the water and one of Beaux’s aromas made her lightheaded. She hummed her enjoyment. Well, if she was losing her mind, then at least she could say she went down the cray-cray road with a smile on her face. There were worse things than being desired by a really hot man. Even if she could never have him the way she craved him.

One bite. Her neck ached from wanting his mark. It would be so easy. Welcome home, sweetheart. I’m not sure where you got off to. Could you please join me under this water and mark me forever?

Only his doing so wouldn’t fix her, and, in the end, she would hurt him worse than if she left him alone. How did True Mates survive each other’s loss? How had Jensen in Cyrus’ pack made it through when she’d been unable to save Kyra? They’d had kids. Had his love for them been enough to endure the pain?

Her knees threatened to give out, and she gripped the wall. Unlike earlier, she had no inclination to cry. She’d had more than enough of tears earlier, and the relief she’d gotten had helped. Lake finished cleaning herself up and got out from the water. The whole bathroom smelled like Beaux now, and she felt cocooned in his safety.
