ZINA
Zina and Daemon laid side by side, staring at each other minutes after their love making in the cacophony of blissful silence and serenity that enveloped them.
It was the perfect kind of peace, and none of them was ready to break the bubble and face the stormy world around. That was of course until Daemon squinted, frowning hard as though he was suddenly coming upon bad news.
Zina sat up right, figuring he was communicating with someone through the pack link. But a second later, he was bolting up from the bed, shrugging into leather pants and clasping his bronze belt close.
"What has happened?" Zina asked, wrapping herself around their duvet while she approached him tentatively.
"Seraph was spotted with the Red Wolf," Daemon said grimly while Zina's heart stuttered.
Was spotted. It was in the past tense.
"What about now?" She asked, bracing herself for the worst news.
