I tried to keep my focus on the battle but that was turning out harder than ever when all I wanted to do was confront Amanda and find out if it was true.
Could she be carrying my child? Or was it a bastard whelp from her past?
But that's not how it felt to me. Once the words were given form, I believed them without a doubt.
My mate was pregnant with our child. A future for my people was already established.
A vicious growl came from one of the hounds and it opened its mouth unleashing a stream of orange flames straight at my mate's kidnapper. Killing him once would never be enough. I needed to pull every bone out of his body and stab him through the eyes with it.
Once the flames hit, Aren was knocked back like he'd been struck by a sledgehammer. He hit back first into one of the trees and grunted, his body falling forward like a rag doll.
I would be the one to end this pathetic creature's life. It was my woman he'd taken. My life he'd tried to ruin.
