章 33: Just Save Her

Siroos was the first one to reach his mate. He burst through the door, and his bronzed chest heaved. His heart almost stopped beating seeing the sight. 

The mate bond painfully squirmed in his chest, trying to reach her, just to safely nestle her in its hold. 

Cassandra was clutching her thigh which was bleeding from two points. Her eyes had blown wide from pain and shock. 

Without thinking, he rushed to her. Before he could physically reach her, his protective powers shot out like blue wispy tendrils and sounded her in a protective halo, softly glowing all around her. But he knew he was late…

He rushed forward and snatched her in his arms while hoarsely inquiring, the sound almost feral. 

"What happened?" 

But her eyes rolled in her sockets as the foam began to froth out of her ajar mouth. He could sense her body going limp in his hold and the colour leaving her cheeks.
