My claws slice through the man’s neck. His flesh giving way as blood starts to sputter from the gush. I was pissed. Completely livid that they would dare to attack my mate.

The fact that they chose to attack her now means that they thought she would be alone. That leaves only one conclusion, that they have been watching her.

Monitoring her every move, waiting for the perfect time to strike. Too bad for them because it seemed they didn’t expect me to show up. Or if they did know I was here, they thought they could take me one.

I was the best for a reason. Up until now, the only one who can challenge me is Sylvia.

A growl tears from my throat when I notice one man escaping. It’s dangerous to leave Red alone but I also have to make sure he doesn’t get away.

I change into fang and chase the guy. Our paws pounding the hard ground. I taste the man’s fear and it’s a sweet essence to our nose.

“Don’t lose him” I uttered.

“Not planning to” comes Fang’s reply as he pumps his paws.

His fear and perspiration leads us straight to him. He had reached a dead end with no place to run.

When he sees me, his face pales and he starts trembling.

We start circling him, snapping our jaws at him when he tried to go past us. Toying with him before we can finally end his pathetic life.

“Give me control” I command Fang. “We need to ask him some question”

He surrenders control and I pierce the man with a cold look. I scrunch my brows in disgust when the asshole pisses himself. What the fuck kind of assassin was he? isn't he supposed to be a tough fucker?

“Please, spare me. I have a mate and kids” he pleads pathetically.

Was that supposed to move me? Does he not know who I am? I’m called heartless for a reason. No one goes after what’s mine and expects to walk out alive.

“And I should care about this, why?” I begin “You tried to attack my mate. You wanted to kill her, I want to know why?”

I already knew someone wanted her dead. But asking him wouldn’t harm. Maybe he could provide me with information that we didn’t know.

“She’s on the top of the assassination list” he answers timidly.

“I already fucking know that dipshit” I spouted angrily. “Tell me something I don’t know.”

I get close to him. My aura making him submit to the dominant alpha before him.

He swallows. “The stakes have been raised”

“What do you mean?”

“The price for her head has risen from twenty million to fifty” he replies, shocking me to the core.

Someone coughing that much money seriously wants Lauren dead. Which begs the question why? What is so important about Lauren that would make someone pay fifty million to have her killed?

“Please let me go. I’ve told you everything I know”

His grating voice brings me back to the present. I stare at him coldly. Without saying anything to him I punch my hand through his chest. His eyes register shock right before I rip his heart out of his rib cage.

I drop his heart just as I release the grip around his neck. He collapses to the ground, his wide eyes staring sightlessly at me. Frozen in surprise and horror.

Turning on my feet, I change into Fang and race back to the cabin. I get there in minutes.

I ignore the mess in the living room and follow Red’s scent. I find her in the bedroom curled up in a fetal position on the bed.

“Red” I call her as I sit on the bed and run my fingers through her hair.

I should have at least washed my hands first but I wanted to check on her. After seeing her in that position I know I can’t leave her now.

She turns suddenly and throws herself at me, catching me off guard. I automatically wrap my arms around her. She buries her face in my neck. Something has her upset and I can’t figure out what it is.

“What’s wrong beautiful?” I ask her worriedly.

She doesn’t answer me, just continues to bury her face in my neck. I wrap my fist around her red hair before gently tagging it. When her face is inches from me, I see the tears swimming in her eyes.

“Please tell me what’s wrong”

I hated seeing her like this. It tugged a part of my heart that I thought had died a long time ago.

“I can’t stop thinking of how this would have been really bad if you hadn’t come. Sure I have Blue and Midnight, but we were vulnerable with the heat wreaking havoc in our bodies. I could have been raped right before they killed me” she replies softly. Her lips trembling. Tears leaking from her eyes.
