CHAPTER 23

RIVER

She was safe.

I knew that was what mattered. But I had learnt something tonight: no matter how much I tried to push aside the desire to protect her with every fibre of my being, I just couldn’t.

I was a protector. An Alpha.

I looked after what was mine.

And I could promise her the world, but I wasn’t sure I could promise her that I could be okay with letting her look after herself.

It tore me apart. Not knowing if she was okay during the patrol. Not knowing if she was alive.

I was constantly checking in with Zander through the mind-link like some sort of over-protective parent.

Not having her around these past few months … maybe a part of me was actually relieved.

It made me sound horrible. Made me feel horrible. But I was relieved to be able to deal with these rogues—putting myself in danger—knowing she wasn’t around to be caught in the crossfire.

If the rogues wanted to get to me, wanted to really hit me, all they needed to do was go for her.

When I’d promised her the honesty and freedom she so desired in the few weeks she’d been back, I didn’t realise how much harder that would be to give her when she was actually caught in the middle of it all.
