16. Sophia

She's dead? I spent all night tossing and turning, expecting to hear them stumble into the room next door. I didn't want to fall asleep and wake up while they were in the middle of screwing each other. So I stayed up, holding my breath. Waiting. And now he's telling me that there is no mate? She died while he was on his way to save me. Not just that but he can see? The fingers on my neck cut off my airways, making my body kick off into defense mode. My fingers claw on his arm while my legs kick out, one of them landing on his stomach. Fuck, he's freakishly strong. How is he even holding my entire body up with one hand? And it doesn't look like he's straining. Wolves are strong but this? No way this is normal

"K... Kad... Kaden..." I struggle to say, my nails digging into his arm and breaking skin. But he doesn't loosen his grip. My vision starts blurring, strength draining from my body and making my limbs useless. Is he going to kill me? I can feel the fight leaving me as Kaden's hand
