We remain like that for several moments before he reaches behind me and switches off the ice–cold water. 

He pulls away, tugging free from my hold on his hoodie, clearly proof that he was allowing me to hold him like that and he grabs a towel. 

My heart pounds as his eyes rake over my body, making goosebumps rise on my skin and they are not because of the water… 

He wraps the towel around me, his gaze dipping to my breasts one last time before he tucks one end of the towel in, his fingers grazing my cleavage, and everything seems to disappear from my mind. 

His eyes snap up to mine and our eyes lock as he removes his hand from where he was tucking the towel in. Grabbing my waist, he lifts me down from the small ledge that leads to the shower cubicle. 

“What are you doing here?” I ask quietly. 

My skin now feels extra tender even though the cold water satiated it a little. 

“I came to check in on you when I heard you wake up. It’s good I did. You clearly can’t take care of yourself.” He says, taking hold of my pinkie and tugging me from the room. I follow, not trusting him to not break my poor little finger, but I have a feeling he chose minimum contact, so he doesn’t touch my tender skin. 

A panic attack. 

I had a panic attack. 

I haven’t had one in a while…. 

And he saw me in that state…. 

“Why are you so weak?” 

I freeze, those words stinging me, hitting hard because I know how much truth there is in them. 

“We are not all as strong as you… nor was I raised as a fighter.” I whisper, wrapping my arms around myself, staring down at my arms that are slowly healing. 

“Being a fighter has nothing to do with it. You are a Blood Born, whether you were trained or not, if you utilise that power, you could do better.” He walks over to me, and I look up into those eyes once more. “Your brother is Atticus Payne,

right? Sebastian King is your Alpha, and Zaia Toussaint is your friend, yet from all of them you’re far weaker. What happened? Were you a leftover?” 

I clench my jaw. “I trained ok. I have been controlling my abilities! How dare you say-” 

“The facts? Because you need them to be said. What are you afraid of?” 

Is he for real? m 

“What am I afraid of?! Of what happened last night? In case you’ve forgotten, let me refresh your memory! It was one of your people who came into my apartment and tried to rip open my head. That’s where this all started from.” I whisper hatefully. 

It’s not his fault, but I don’t want him to see me in this state. I feel confused and my mind is a mess. 

Why is he entering my life like this? 

He doesn’t respond, and I scoff. “Nothing to say? I thought as much, leave. Now.” 

Turning my back on him, I wait for him to leave, but he doesn’t. I turn back, my eye’s flashing, but before I can speak, he beats me to it. 

“I wouldn’t get involved if you were strong enough to take care of yourself… so here’s the deal,” he whispers as he steps no advances closer to me, like at predator ready to attack. 

– 

But I hold my ground even if a shiver runs down my spine. 

“This is how it’s going to be. From now on, watch your back, whether it’s at home or when you’re out alone… I’ll be there… so be ready for anything every single day of your life… because until you learn to be vigilant, no amount of training will be helpful. You need to follow your instincts.” 

What does he mean he’ll be there? 

A chill runs down my spine and I’m certain I’ve gotten into something bad if what he’s insinuating is what I think it is. 

“Are you saying you’re going to stalk me?” I ask in disbelief. 

He tilts his head, reaching over and running his fingers slowly through my hair. My heart hammers nervously as I try not to melt into that touch that feels good, yet is a curse… 

“Yes… and you need to realise when I’m there, be aware of your surroundings because if I catch you… I will fuck you, whether you want it or not.” His

whispered threat sends a tingle through me as my eyes fly open in shock. 

How? How is it possible that those words excite me?
