"So it was Zhurielle who caused you this much pain, my little mate," Alanor whispered as he looked at a fatigued Unar. His mate looked terrible, like he had lost all hope of life. He had clearly had the longest six weeks and for that someone had to pay.

"I won't let anyone hurt you again," Alanor said as he gently kissed Unar's forehead. He loved that he was in bed with Unar and at the same time, he felt thankful that Unar hadn't marked him. 

That was especially since there were things that Alanor was going to do, lines he was going to cross, and those were lines that could make Unar look bad. Alanor wanted to take the blame of everything he did, and he didn't want to see his mate suffering anymore.
