I rose before sunrise, turning over on the furs to look down at Kimmy’s sleeping face. I had never seen anything so beautiful. Her closed eyes were blushed pink and her lashes were full and thick. The pale tone of her skin only accentuated how fragile she was.

The night before, I had let her sleep instead of trying to rut with her. The tiny woman needed to rest. Her human emotions were raging inside her, and I didn’t want to be the cause of any additional stress.

I brushed a strand of hair away from her face, and leaned down to press my lips to her head. She smelled of fragrant oil and my brother’s musk.

I drew back, growling. I wanted her for myself so badly I could taste it. The smell of my brother on her made anger rise inside me.

It shouldn’t have been this way. If a Zimbre female was mated with twin males, it was not this way. The female would take both males. But we couldn’t do it to our Kimmy. It was breaking tradition to make her choose between us, but neither Vock or I believed the fragile female could take us both in the way she would need to in order to be claimed by both of us.

I regretted that fact more than anything else I’d ever regretted in my entire life. My brother had always been my closest friend and ally, and I feared that this situation would tear us apart. The last thing I wanted was to feel animosity for my brother. But when it came to Kimmy, I was willing to lie, cheat, and steal to make her mine.

As far as I was willing to go, I could never betray her trust. The connection and commitment a Zimbre felt for his mate was not absent in me because my brother and I were forced to compete for her.

I felt exactly the same level of attachment for this woman that I would have if she had been Zimbre. I adored her. I felt desire for her deep under my skin. I could never hurt her. That was what made this whole mess so hard to bare.

The cupids hadn’t told us how to handle such a tiny female. Vock and I were left to decide it on our own. We both felt instantly attached to the woman, insanely protective, and sensitive to her needs. We could not hurt her, even if not doing it meant losing her forever.

Nevertheless, I was determined to win her for myself, regardless of my loyalty to my brother. Kimmy was everything to me now.

I briefly considered what I would do if she chose Vock as I swung my legs over the side of the bed and stood. The possibility of losing Kimmy stabbed at my heart, and I had to shake the thoughts away. I would die without her. That much I was sure of. I would go to the east and there I would fight the Horix dragon. It would be my final act to bring honor to my family and my mate.
