Max's POVI don't want to talk to Zahra smelling like this. I can't do anything about the mess I've made of things between us, not yet anyway, but surely, I can manage to wash the blood and dirt off before I try to face her properly. I owe her that courtesy at the very least.“Can I shower? I feel horrible,” I say to the nurse.She bites her lip and looks towards the doctor.“I'm not sure you're up to it, Alpha,” she says hesitantly.The doctor frowns.“How much pain are you in?” he asks.His eyes narrow slightly as he watches me, and I get the distinct impression he doesn't believe a fucking word I'm about to tell him.And honestly, sitting here right now, not moving, none. Medus has done a good job healing me. It hurts like a bitch still when I move, but I've had worse. Maybe not, but I've had bad injuries before, and I'm still alive. It can't be that bad…“I'm okay, Doctor. I need to wash up and use the bathroom. Could you help me?”I start to pull myself into a more upright positi

Max's POVThe nurse fusses over me, checking my bandages and the lines into my arm before she unclips the restraints across my chest and legs. The fucking restraints that just stopped me from comforting my Goddess-damned mate. If I'd had the strength, I would have ripped them to shreds right then and there.She was right there, crying against me, and I couldn't even put my fucking arms around her. Then she pulled away, and all I could do was watch. The look on her face when she apologised keeps replaying in my head. She actually apologised to me, after everything I've done.I watch closely as Xander talks to Oscar outside the car. I can't hear what they're saying over the nurses' conversations, but Xander looks strained. He looks fucking exhausted, if I'm honest, and a weird sensation starts to build in my chest. I rub at it absently.I haven't seen him look this worn down in a long time. Even from here, I can see the tension in his shoulders and the way he holds himself, like he's ca

Xander's POV“You don't need to thank me, darling. Even if we weren't mates, I'd be here for you. Always. I love you, and I have loved you for a long, long time.”I kiss the top of her head and feel her relax another degree. And I mean every fucking word. The bond didn't make me love her. It only gave a name to something that had already been there.“Speaking of people who love you, Tobias and Lincoln are going apeshit. Between them, they've practically worn out my phone. I think you'd better call before they decide to turn the entire convoy around.”She sighs, then pulls back.“Shit, I'm sure they're worried. They would have felt everything.”I nod.“And I think the warriors passed on information about the attack. They're going out of their minds.”“Okay, I'll get dressed and then call them now.”I kiss her temple.“Okay, you finish up, and I'll go and check on the new car. Need anything else?”She shakes her head. “Nope, I'll be out in a sec.”I give her one more kiss and grab my ba

Xander's POVI lead Zahra through the rest stop towards the toilets and showers at the back of the building. There's a Task Force warrior standing outside each of the male and female doors, so I know they've been swept and cleared for our use. It's a relief knowing we can have ten fucking minutes of privacy without worrying about anyone wandering in on us, and having the warriors nearby means we can relax a little without letting our guard down completely. I don't think any of us have properly relaxed since we left Shadow.I nod at the one outside the female door and push it open, leading Zahra inside.The toilets are lined up on the right, and another door off to the left opens into a locker room, with shower cubicles at the back.“We don't have long, but have a shower. You'll feel better afterwards.” I have to pray it's true. I don't want to lie to her.I put her bag down on the bench in the middle of the room.“Thanks,” she says quietly.She looks so fucking tired standing there, h

Xander's POV“Come on, darling, let's go get washed up. Zach, can you organise food for us as well, please?” I ask my Beta as I wrap an arm around Zahra.“Sure, anything in particular?”I glance down at Zahra. She shrugs.“Not fussed.”He nods, pats her shoulder and turns to head inside.I give her a small squeeze, and we start walking towards the doors of the rest stop.“What is worrying you most right now?” I ask her quietly as we walk.She sighs. I can feel her relax as I hold her, but it's not enough. She dips her head, fighting her emotions hard, and I wish she'd just stop trying to hide them from me.“I know he came back, and I know it cost him to do so. Fuck, he nearly died to warn us, and I know he saved us and everything, but what if he did all of that out of guilt? Because he heard about the rogues and came to tell us for old times' sake? I just can't help thinking that as soon as he's better, he's going to decide he still doesn't want me, and reject me, and leave again.”My

Xander's POVI glance over at Zahra again. The emotions she's feeling, even muted as she tries to hide them from the bond, are making me feel ill. She's a bundle of fear, anxiety, anger and wary uncertainty. Fuck, if I were feeling what she currently is, I think I'd be a shaking, rocking mess in the corner. After everything she's been through, I need to take some of this load from her, but I have no idea how.Normally, I can make her smile, distract her, hold her close until the worst of whatever she's feeling starts to ease. But I can't kiss this away or make some stupid joke that will somehow put everything right. The one thing hurting her most is lying in the back of my fucking car, and there's nothing I can do to change that.Being so close to Max again is clearly setting her off, but I don't know how to fix this. Max is awake, and the nurses are quietly asking him questions as they run through various checks, but Zahra is all I can think about.And that's probably a good thing, b
