Someday it will be easier to watch my husband and the faerie girl cuddle. I know that. I also know that it hurts as badly as Tremain’s leg must as I try to get the bullet out. When the marriage bond is officially severed—the thought stops with Main’s tightening fingers on my forearm.

“When?” he whispers, more a mouthing of the word than aloud.

I shrug my shoulder and ease the tweezers to the bottom of the wound. We’d cut it open once already, but I still can’t see the bullet. I hate hurting him, but if he’d stop being stubborn and shift back to his wolf, this would be much easier.

Even with my hands covered in Tremain’s blood, I prefer it to the conversation happening across from us. Debriefing Zinnia on what happened at her in-laws’ home might be the harder task. Kenny looks more stressed now than he did while in battle: tension lines around his mouth have added five or more years to him, and the flush to his cheeks has nothing to do with desire.

“Your father-in-law is dead.” He doesn’t tell her that he’s the one who killed Mr. Plata. I’m pretty sure that the faerie girl understands that though with the way she’s touching him. She knows what this admission is costing him to say.

Corin brings me a fresh pitcher of water and cloths before eyeing the other couple. He knows better than to get too close to them, to the mates. I want to tell him he shouldn’t be that close to me either, but with Main all but sitting in my lap as I work on his leg, maybe there isn’t anything to worry about there. How the others don’t know about us is a miracle. Corin grabs the stack of bloodied towels and dips his head toward me. “I need to go run a bit, Nara. If you don’t need anything…” he trails off, and I know he’s praying to be released from service for the night. Running to one of the unmated females is the only running he’ll be doing tonight. He’s a warrior through and through, and if I told him to stay on guard, he would without complaint.

“Go. We’ve got this. Tell the guys we’ll have a meal soon. Maybe an hour? Let me finish this first.” My pack will need to replenish after how rough tonight was on all of us. It will likely be ordered in pizza given my energy levels, but fuck if I care. We’ll all eat together before sleeping off the exhaustion.

Zinnia’s magic sweeps coldly across the room, and I hear the question she’d asked through Kenny’s Alpha connection, not my own ears. My blood is pumping too loudly at the inquiry. Her husband. Shit.

I push the anxiety away as Corin leaves, knowing that with just two pairs of mates, there is little anyone will do. We have other reasons to move past this pain. When I answer her, it’s with a gentleness I don’t feel for the situation but solely for the woman I know will save my pack.
