Lincoln's POVThe sun is warm against my skin, and the air smells of freshly cut grass and jasmine.Zahra walks beside me, her fingers entwined with mine, laughing at something I've said. I can't remember what it was, but I don't particularly care. She's smiling up at me, her eyes bright, and the sound of her laughter makes me smile.We're walking through the meadow behind Shadow, following the narrow path towards the woods. The grass is long enough to brush against our legs, and there are little white flowers scattered amongst it. Somewhere nearby, bees are buzzing lazily amongst the wildflowers, and a gentle breeze carries the familiar sounds of the pack going about their day.I haven't been down here in ages. I used to come here when I was younger, when being Alpha was still something I was preparing for rather than a responsibility I carried every fucking day. I remember spending hours wandering through these meadows, enjoying the peace and quiet before returning to whatever lesso

Lincoln's POVI glance towards Zahra again. She's still curled up on the bed, completely oblivious to our conversation.Tobias is right. The pack is safe, Daemon has given us somewhere to stay, and there's nothing I can accomplish in the next few hours that wouldn't be better handled after some sleep.I just need to convince the part of me that's spent the last twenty-four hours expecting something terrible to happen.Tobias gives my back another gentle rub before moving away to find some clean clothes.It's such a small gesture, but I'm beginning to realise how much I appreciate his quiet affection. He doesn't make a fuss of it or expect anything in return. He simply notices when I'm struggling and does what he can to help.I watch him for a moment, then head into the bathroom to wash my

Lincoln's POVWhen she's dressed, Tobias settles her onto the bed, and I pull the duvet back. She immediately curls onto her side, tucking one hand beneath her cheek.I can't help laughing softly. “Goddess, sweetheart. You didn't even give us a chance to sort the pillows.”“Don't care,” she mumbles into the mattress, making no attempt to move.“Clearly,” I reply, smiling as I go around to the other side of the bed.I gently guide her head onto one of the pillows before spreading her damp hair across the towel, I've laid over it. She sighs, apparently satisfied, and closes her eyes again.Tobias stands beside me, watching her. I notice the way his shoulders finally begin to relax.“She's completely done in,” h

Lincoln's POVZahra's been quiet for a while now, her head resting against the back of the bath, her eyes closed as Tobias gently strokes his thumb over her knuckles.I glance at him across the tub, and he gives me a small smile before looking back at our mate.She's not quite asleep, but she's getting there. Her breathing has slowed, and every so often her fingers twitch against his hand as though she's reminding herself he's still there.I can't blame her for wanting to stay in the water. She looks more relaxed than she has since she woke up at Shadow before everything kicked off, and after everything that's happened, I'm reluctant to disturb her. But the water's beginning to cool, and I can feel how exhausted she is through the bond.“Sweetheart,” I murmur, brushing a damp strand of hair away from her cheek. “We should probably get you out before you fall asleep in there.”She makes a small noise of protest, although she doesn't bother opening her eyes.Tobias chuckles quietly, his

Zahra's POVTobias’s arms settle around my shoulders, one hand moving slowly over my hair, smoothing it down again and again. I can feel the steady beat of his pulse beneath my cheek, and I concentrate on that for a while, on the simple comfort of being held by someone I love.He doesn't say anything, and neither do I. For a few moments, we simply hold each other.When Lincoln rejoins us, his voice is quiet.“The bath's ready.”“Come on, Princess,” Tobias murmurs, pulling back just enough to look down at me. “Let's get you cleaned up and relaxed.”I smile at him. “That sounds good.”Lincoln comes over and takes my hand, leading me towards the bathroom. The air is already warm when we step inside, steam rising from the enormous roll-top bath positioned in front of another floor-to-ceiling window. Beyond the glass, the mountains stretch away into the distance, although I'm far more interested in the inviting water than the view.“Goddess, that looks amazing,” I murmur.Lincoln checks th

Zahra's POVI pull back from Lincoln's embrace and realise Tobias is leading Xander into the cabin. Behind me, I'm vaguely aware of Max being taken away by the doctor. Unease settles in my stomach, but I remind myself he still needs checking over. There's also the conversation we need to have, and the thought brings a familiar heaviness to my chest.We'd spent the rest of the journey drifting in and out of sleep, waking every so often to make sure we weren't being followed. None of us had been able to relax completely, and I certainly wasn't about to have that conversation with Max while the nurse was there.Zach is standing in front of me, looking me up and down as though trying to ascertain whether I've sustained any more injuries since the rest stop. Oscar comes up beside him, his eyes also scanning me, but at least that's literally his job.Lincoln wraps an arm around my waist and presses a kiss to my temple. I feel his body relax by degrees now that he has me back in his arms, an
