When the sun rose, all the Vampires who had come at us were dead and we weren’t. I bent over, holding on to my knees. Deacon stretched his arms toward the sun and nodded toward one of our new Warriors. I didn’t know what was more dangerous—a newbie Warrior or an older one who got sloppy?

Right then, I didn’t care much. I missed Brynna. This mating thing was going to be a problem. I hadn’t thought about her during the fight, but now every cell in my body craved the sight of her like I normally would air or food.

Was she missing me at all?

And just like that, she was there. The sun had come out. Dark circles marred the skin under her eyes. I reached to touch the side of her face and then stopped. I had blood on me. My own, I was afraid. I’d gotten nicked on my own stake. Vampires didn’t bleed. They turned to ash.

I didn’t want to get blood on her face.

She touched the side of mine instead. “You could die doing this. You know that, right? Sometimes the Vampires win. I mean, no one wins. This isn’t what they want to be doing either. But, sometimes they get Warriors.”

With her hand on my cheek, the softness of her skin touching my own, I could breathe again. “They haven’t gotten me yet.”

“Doesn’t mean they won’t.”

She was right. “Look, this is who I am. I can’t be docile, all the weeping and losing my mind to the contrary.”

Brynna was so quiet. Anxiety prickled at my skin while I waited for her to respond. “You do look better. Getting Chad was the right thing to do. Deacon told me to wait, but he was wrong.”

So Brynna had brought Chad to me. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” She dropped her hand but only to lace our fingers together. “What you’re saying is if this mating isn’t going to drive us both crazy, I need to accept you will risk your life nightly?”

I smirked at her. “I thought you didn’t want this. Ending the mating, right?”

“I want this.”

Her words banged into my soul like an explosion, but Chad’s words of caution from earlier had to be addressed. “I kill Vampires.”

She raised her dark, beautiful eyebrows slowly. “I’m not a Vampire anymore. I’m… something else. I don’t know what. I don’t want to be alone anymore.”

“Careful. You now know I’m a crier. I might start again. You’re not alone. You have me.” I spoke the words and knew they were true. What had cemented this feeling? I didn’t know. Maybe it was mating crap, but this felt good, and why should I want it to stop?

She snorted, and then it changed to a downright laugh. I grinned. “Having me is funny?”

“You as a crier is funny. You didn’t really cry. You kind of roared. Like a lion. Oh, like your last name. L-Y-O-N. Get it?”

She was clearly not a punner. But she was so adorable I didn’t want her to stop. “Totally get it.
