Her Freezing Heart

When did he even get there? I just want to sleep. Why won’t he let me do that? I opened my eyes to look at him. He looked mad but something else was evident in his eyes. Hurt. That’s confusing actually. Why is he hurt?

“Her mate marked someone else last night. I helped her through it as she was in a lot of pain.” Steven explained before I can even open my mouth.

“You slept with her?” Austin said raising his voice.

What the hell is wrong with this one?

“Yeah. That was the only way.” I interjected quite snappily. “The pain was excruciating.”

He flinched. He looked at me weirdly for a second then moved his eyes to Steven.

“Well don’t you look happy.” He said to him in a very mean tone.

What is he on about? What’s his problem?

“I am.” Steven replied. I can feel him getting angry as his chest rumbled a little with a suppressed growl. “She healed me.”

“WHAT?” That came from the front door of the apartment.

Uh oh!

“What does he mean by you healed him? Tell me the truth Amy. What is going on over here? Do not lie to me this time.” Aaron said marching towards us.

He looked at me then moved his eyes to Steven and glared at him. How much did he hear? He smelled strongly of booze.

marking someone else so his venom from the mark he gave me was burning out of my blood. Like it was literally burning out. That’s why I look scorched. Cassidy said there is only one way to reduce the pain and Steven helped me with it. In the morning I wanted to heal him but I was weak. My
