The room was fin, moonlight spilling across the floor. My eyes suddenly fell on the window and happened to catch a figure -Cut and fleeting–ranishing into the night after it realized that I was awake.
My breath hatched, fear clutching my chest.
I suddenly felt a hand wrap tightly around my waist, dragging me back to the bed–to his embrace. “Little wolf?”
His voice was groggy, deep with sleep. He stirred instantly, becoming alert when he felt my trembling. His arms tightened around me. “What is it? What’s wrong? Nightmare?”
I clutched at him, still staring at the window. I… I saw something Someone was here. At the window-
He followed my gaze, his eyes narrowing In one swift motion, he was up, scanning the room, but the shadow was already gone. He cursed under his breath before returning to me.

His hand gently patted my back and he held me in his arms. “Calm down… I won’t let them hurt you again.”
I wanted to believe him, but fear clung to me like glue. My lips trembled. “But what if-
He silenced me with a kiss to my forehead, tender and affectionate. “No more doubts. You’re safe. As long as I breathe, you will never wake up alone again
My eyes burned, but I buried my face against his chest, clutching his shirt as though he were the only anchor I had.
But from somewhere that I didn’t see, Lucien’s eyes darkened as he stared at the window.
The sun was barely awake when I stepped into the courtyard, yet the warriors were already gathered. Their sparring stopped
