Helanie:
"Helanie!" Kaye held my hand, trying to pull me away, but I couldn't feel my legs anymore. My vision blurred from tears as Kaye wrapped his arms around my body to carry me. I could sense his strength, yet he still struggled to move me from my spot.
"Ahahahaha!" Rune's laughter echoed through the air, his head disappearing into the clouds.
"Kill them!" As my false mother yelled, I found Kaye standing before me, placing his hand on my chest.
"You will not let them win; you are my mate. Together, we are stronger than they can imagine." His warm hand slipped beneath my shirt to touch my skin, resting over my heart.
"Ahhh!" I gasped, waking up.
