CHAPTER 342
~Snow's POV~
I wasn't thinking straight.
I didn't even know where I was driving at first—my mind was too clouded, too tangled in everything that had just happened.
All I knew was that seeing her in such a state left me feeling weak, angry, wanting to cherish and protect her, all of which I didn't want to do because of Zara.
The best thing to do at this point was simply to get her treated and be at peace.
Glacier was restless, pacing in my head like a caged animal, his instincts screaming at me to keep Vera close, to bring her somewhere safe.
Somewhere ours.
"Not ours," I snapped at him. "I'm doing the right thing, nothing more."
"Right thing? Leaving our mate alone in a strange place? She needs us."
"She needs rest and safety. Not me. Not us."
