Chapter Six

Zayde was relieved when Sheriff Harper arrived. He felt like it had taken hours instead of twenty minutes for the guy to show up. As soon as the sheriff got out of his car, Zayde threw the front door open. “He’s on the couch.”

“You didn’t tell me what’s going on,” Sheriff Harper said.

As best he could, Zayde filled the sheriff in. He didn’t know how it all started, how the demon had gotten his hands on his mate, but he told the sheriff about Panahasi coming to get him and what had taken place after that.

“I’ve never heard of anyone named Kalin,” the sheriff said. “Let me take a look at Denali.”

The bear shifter walked inside, and Zayde closed the door behind him. He tried to imagine the sheriff as a bear but couldn’t. He was still wrapping his mind around the fact that Denali was a lion shifter. He’d seen his mate in his lion form for all of two seconds, and honestly, he wanted to see it again.

Sheriff Harper peeled back Denali’s shirt then hissed. “Fuck,” he grumbled. “You said not even Phoenix could heal him?”

“No.” Zayde stood quietly for a moment, his arms wrapped around his stomach. His mate was back to being unconscious, and he had sweat beading his forehead. “I thought shifters couldn’t get sick. Why does he look like he’s running a fever?”

“There’re a few exceptions,” Sheriff Harper said. “Silver poisoning is a real thing. That could kill us in a high enough dose. I once heard of someone who’d had a magical collar put on him, and the only way to get it off was with the key. Supernatural things can harm us, and from what you told me, Denali was hurt with a fire whip by a demon.”

Zayde’s hope shrank. “So he’s screwed?”

“Let me make a phone call,” he said.

While the sheriff made his call, Zayde knelt by Denali. He brushed his hand over his mate’s sweaty forehead, praying Denali made it out of this alive.

Zayde screamed when a purple-haired man simply appeared in his living room.

“Oh good.” The stranger looked relieved. “I was hoping I wouldn’t materialize into a piece of furniture. I don’t know the layout of your house.”

Zayde stood there frozen, unsure what to say or do. “Who are you?”

“I’m Gage,” the guy said.

“I called him,” Sheriff Harper said when he came back into the room. “Gage is a fairy.”

“You weren’t supposed to know that,” Gage said to the sheriff. “Who spilled the beans?”

“That battle you had with your father?” the sheriff said. “Things don’t stay a secret around here. Anyway, can you take a look at Deputy Davis’s wound and tell me if you can heal it?”

Hope blossomed inside Zayde. “I’m going out on a limb and guessing that you’re magical.”

Gage smiled at him. “Then you picked the right limb. Let me take a look.”

Holding his breath, Zayde watched as Gage examined Denali. “What did this?”

“From what I understand, a whip made of fire,” Zayde said. “Some demon named Kalin.
