110. Kate

The thunder. Every time it rumbled over the packhouse it sent a wave of heat through my body. I could barely focus on Glenn. He is so angry, so bitter at how his mate has been treated. I know I would feel the same, to know someone had harmed even a hair on Dex’s head would mortify me. I don’t think the men quite realised how many scars she is covered in.

Presumably if she has them all over the visible bits of her body, they’re going to be in the other areas too. The poor girl. Tomorrow we will do everything possible to help her.

Climbing the dark wooden stairs with Dex another deep rumble sounds. The storm is getting closer. I cannot help grabbing his hand. There is electricity in his grasp and I feel my eyes flashing already.

The instant he opens the door to our suite I jump at him. My lips on his before the door even shuts. His hands are unzipping the dark ruby red of my dress, unveiling my porcelain skin to him.

Wordlessly, our actions perfectly synchronised in the darkness.
