Emma watched the door for long moments, and then her gaze flickered over his face. Her skin paled and she turned away.

“Your wounds are mending well.”

She said nothing, just brushed her fingertips over her chest.

“When you drink again, they should heal completely.” He sat beside her, rolling up his sleeve, but she recoiled from him.

“Where am I?” Her gaze darted all around, finally resting on the foot of the mahogany bed. She focused on the intricately wrought carvings, then twisted around to view the headboard, scrutinizing the inlaid symbols there. The room was deepening into darkness, with only the fire lighting it, and the symbols seemed to move with shadow.

Craftsmen had begun constructing this bed on the day of Lachlain’s birth, not only for him, but forher.

He’d often lain just where she was, staring at the carvings with fascination, imagining what his mate would be like.

“You’re at Kinevane. You’re safe. Nothing can harm you here.”

“Did you kill all of them?”

“Aye.”

She nodded, clearly satisfied.

“Do you know why they would attack like that?”

“You’re asking me?” She tried to rise.

“What do you think you’re doing?” he demanded, pressing her back down.

“I need to call home.”

“I called your home last night.”

Her eyes went wide with apparent relief. “You swear? When are they coming to get me?”

He was disappointed by how happy the thought of leaving him made her—but he couldn’t blame her. “I spoke to Annika, and now I know what they are. What you are.”

Her face fell. “Did you tell her whatyou are?”

When he nodded, she turned away, flushing, he realized, with shame.

He tried to tamp down his anger. “It shames you for them to know you’re with me?”

“Of course it does.”

He grated, “Because you see me as an animal.”
