The bond pulsed hard and for the very first time, I felt her fear and I stiffened immediately.
It was so intensely raw, causing a burst of terror to roll over me just as fiercely as hers was. I pressed my hand to my chest, her agony ripping into a deep part of my soul that awakened the primal alpha inside me so rapidly, that it left me gasping for air.
When I pulled my palm away from my chest, I expected to see blood, but there was nothing there. I sat there in her bedroom, trying to understand what I was feeling when our connection grew more intense, surging with her emotions and her terror and I knew I had to move.
My mate needed me. She might be wounded or worse. I had to get to her, right away. There was no time to waste.
