Red coupled with the black of destruction burned in Rayse’s mind. The sight was more than enough to drive the dragon in him livid. He had returned to Constance’s home with strong resolution, certain he could reel his inner beast in and provide a better impression of himself to Eduard.

But he had not expected the sight playing out in front of him right then—his mate, hurting and bewildered in another man’s grip, struggling as he rubbed his scent all over her.

“Rayse, please, it’s not what it looks like,” Constance said, snapping away from Eduard. She rushed to Rayse’s side, but even her touch was not enough to cool the firestorm raging in him.

All reason had abandoned him moments ago.

He would kill this man for laying his dirty paws all over his mate. He would gut him for threatening and scaring her.

“Stop! Don’t hurt my father.”

A dull ache spliced through his shoulder blades, indicating his wings had spread out. He likely appeared as nothing less than the devil to Eduard—good. The man ought to fear him. The healer should be wetting his pants and begging for mercy once Rayse finished with him. Or maybe he’d be wet with blood.

Eduard dragged himself backward. “I-I, I didn’t mean…”

Rayse’s talons lengthened. Eduard startled.

“Rayse!” Constance called.

He leapt at the aging man, a growl ripping from his throat. His ears pulsed with heat. He would skin this man alive.

Eduard fell onto his buttocks and threw his arms up in a protective shield. “I-I’m sorry… I never… never should have tried to take her away…”

Constance rushed between them and spread her arms out, fencing her father. Her eyes were glistening. “Stop now. Please don’t hurt him. You’re hurting me if you do so. You’ll have to kill me before laying a finger on Papa.”

Rayse shoved his way past her. “Nonsense.” Her hands came over his shoulders in a weak attempt to hold him back.

He pinned himself over his prey and curled his fingers around Eduard’s neck. The old man coughed and choked. Rayse’s hold tightened, squeezing the breath out of the healer. Eduard would be one of the countless he’d kill.

But he had never killed innocents.

He swept the thought aside. Eduard wasn’t innocent—he had threatened Rayse’s mate.
