Chapter 88

Ezra’s POV

Nox hit the button for the gate and shot past it the second there was space. Edith followed. The woman wasn’t familiar, but I wasn’t exactly social. And Kael had connections everywhere. He always knew the best of the best. And that was what we needed now.

Raven’s heartbeats started to slow, and panic lit a fiery fire inside me. “She’s fading!” I yelled.

Nox screeched to a stop, and the doors flew open. I instantly moved, sliding out after Asher. Kael was already at the front door of our house, flinging it open.

The healer quickly followed, her pale-green gaze locking on Raven. “Tell me.”

Her voice wasn’t quiet or loud, but there was an air of authority in it, one that demanded answers. Kael gave them to her, and I was glad. I didn’t think I could summon the words to describe what had happened to Raven. My mate. My little warrior.

“One of our enemies took her. Tortured her,” Kael ground out.

“What kind of supernatural?” Edith asked.

A muscle ticked in Kael’s jaw. “None. Human.”

Something flashed in Edith’s eyes. “Take me to your medical room.”

She’d never been here before but knew we’d have one. It was necessary for supernaturals since we couldn’t go to human hospitals or doctors.

We had to take care of our own.

I moved through the house, Dexter racing ahead of me, but the world around me was fuzzy. The only thing I registered was Raven’s slowing

heartbeats. The way they pressed into my arms at intervals that became further and further apart.

Dexter jerked the door open and flicked on the bright overhead lights. I didn’t wait. I moved straight to the gurney in the center of the room and

laid Raven on it as gently as possible. However, when it came time to move my arms to give Edith space to work, I found I couldn’t.

“Give Edith room,” Kael ordered, his voice low. I didn’t move.

“Ezra,” Asher whispered.

“I can’t,” I croaked.

Edith moved to the opposite side of the gurney, her expression turning gentle. “Let me help her.”

I stared down at Raven, taking in the dried blood caking her face, Her hair was matted, and her eyes were closed. A bruise had bloomed across

her cheek. I wanted to rip out the hearts of every single one of those Infernos.

Someone moved closer, poised to act. My senses told me it was Dexter. “We need to give her the best shot we can.”

I tore my hands away from Raven’s body. The action was like ripping out my own heart, bloody claws shredding it into tiny pieces.

But I didn’t stop there, I couldn’t. If I stayed in the room, I’d likely rip the healer limb from limb, Because she’d have to hurt Raven on the way to healing her.

So, I stalked down the hall until I reached the back doors. Tearing one open, I spilled out onto the back patio and went for the first piece of

furniture I saw.

Chapter 88

Picking up the massive chair, I hurled it against a tree. The wooden piece fractured into countless fragments. I went for the ottoman next. Then

a loveseat. I didn’t stop until every item of furniture had been smashed to bits.

“Ezra.” Dexter’s voice sounded understanding but worried.

“Go back inside,” I growled.

“You know I can’t do that.”

Because they worried I’d slip into the darkness for good. Turn and never come back.

“You need to be with Raven,” I argued.

“She would want me to make sure you were okay.”

I scoffed at that. “I don’t think she’d give a damn if I went to the pits of hell.”

Dexter shoved me hard from behind, making me whirl around, then glared at me. “You know that’s not true.”

Agony swept through me. Feeling. It was a thousand times worse since it had been turned off for so long. “She didn’t want me to touch her.”

“Ezra-”

“Not because she was hurt but because it was too painful to have my skin brushing hers.”

Because I’d rejected her. I might not have said the words, but my actions had spoken loud and clear. Doubt. Uncertainty. Retreat.

“Fuck,” Dexter muttered.

I’d never forgive myself for that. I couldn’t. The only thing I could do now was serve Raven at a distance. I’d dedicate my whole life to keeping her safe. And that started tonight.

My canines lengthened as saliva pooled in my mouth..I could already taste blood on my tongue. “I’m going to hunt the Infernos. Every last one.”
