CHAPTER FOUR

*

Alexandre lost his balance and collapsed. His Trenefor dagger was still flashing in his hand. “Oh, my God,” I cried and ran through ashes and dust to get to him.

“Protect yourself. Protect our clan.” The words came out of his mouth with a struggle.

I knelt down and gently I put his head on my lap while his fighting partner was literally kicking ashes. Under any other circumstances, I would have admired her immensely, I would have asked her autograph - honestly.

“I got stabbed with a Trenefor dagger, you know what that means.” He started coughing uncontrollably.

“I know. But it has happened before. And nothing happened to you. You’ll get through this time, too,” I said.

“A Trenefor dagger is one of the few things in this world that can cause the death of a vampire,” he said.

I brushed his brown hair with my fingers and swiped a bead of sweat that rolled down from his forehead. “You aren’t going to die,” I whispered. “This time I know what I need to do.”

“I promised to protect you, Stella Burke. You can’t always be the one who saves me, Stella Burke.” His body shivered on my lap.

“This is not the end,” I said. “Give me your ring.”

I got Alexandre’s ring and put it on my finger. It was the ring of his clan and it would add to the power I had just realized that I had.

“Now, I need you to trust me,” I said as placed his head carefully on the floor.

I slit the skin of my wrist with the Trenefor. My heartbeat sped up and my hand trembled when I let a few drops of my blood fall into Alexandre’s mouth.

My lips parted as I looked over his disheveled dark hair and chiseled face. I noticed for the first time the fitting t-shirt that was clinging to his body and his fine linen pants that were hugging his long legs. I didn’t want to take my eyes away from his.

“You feeling good?” I asked nervously, worried of how long it was taking to get him healed, while his partner was having a hard time fighting against two vampires, one male and one female, right in front of us.

Alexandre was lying with his head on my hand, his eyes closed, and his face peaceful. What if I wasn’t the Hybrid and I wasn’t able to save him? Had my blood lost its healing effect on him? I bit my lip and continued staring at him.

Suddenly, Alexandre opened his eyes and gave me a slight nod.

“Did it work?” I asked breathlessly.

“It worked,” he answered, and a broad smile appeared on his face.

With my help, he slowly stood up on his feet. The adrenaline rush was still at a high level in my body. I looked down at myself. My shirt was stretched, my hands were trembling hard.

A wheezing sound coming from the other side of the spacey living room made us turn our heads. Everything happened so fast and with such an amazing accuracy like it was well orchestrated by a supreme force.
