Zac's POV
Shenna must hate me for not helping her other mate get rescued quickly. But did she know that I did this for her safety? I closed the file and began to drift off into reverie.
Shenna didn't seem to understand what I was feeling right now. She had two mates, so she couldn't choose, and I could understand that. But had she ever asked if I was in pain every time she had sex with her other mate? I felt like I was almost dying. If I decided not to help someone who had committed a crime, especially to my mate, even if it was out of humanity, was I wrong?
I was about to lean back, but stopped when someone entered the room without knocking, immediately closed the door, and leaned against it, breathing heavily.
"Shenna? What's wrong?" I asked, opening the door and looking around to see what had frightened her so much. "Did someone hurt you?"
I reached out and framed her pale face. There were beads of sweat on her forehead, and she was truly terrified.
