Lance's POV

I said those words to her affectionately, hoping she believes she's safe with me and that I would never hurt her, no matter what.

I just want her to be at ease and trust me on this issue, but how do I do that when her mind is a guilty mess? I watch her smile, and her head falls on my chest; I knew what it means instantly.

I wrapped my arms around her, not wanting to let go; never. I busied myself brushing strands of hair from her face to the side of her ears, my hand patting her back gently as I urged her to fall asleep quickly.

Soon her breath was shallow, and her eyes were deeply closed; her fingers had lost their grip on my shoulders. I turned her to the side gently and pulled out of her.

    Lance POV.A silent and steady knock came on the door, making me wake up. I looked at J, she was still sleeping soundly. I didn't know if Justin was actually going to knock or he was just going to stand there deliberating whether to knock or not. I didn't know what was up, but I could sense that he was troubled. I slowly and quietly got up from the bed and made my way to the door before opening it. The moment he saw me, he sighed, did he know I would come open up whether he knocked or not?“Justin, what's up?” I asked, my brows furrowed in worry.He looked at me and then tried to look inside making me narrow my eyes at him, “What's wrong? If you didn't want her to hear, why didn't you just mind-link?” “I'm sorry but I didn't know if I would be disturbing you or not. There's something I want to tell you,” “Okay…” I closed the door behind me because he seemed like he wasn't going to speak until he knew that J was really asleep. “The information you asked me to keep and damage all

She couldn't believe what she heard back in the throne room. She suspected when the guards had said she shouldn't go in but she never expected that they would be in there talking about burning her alive. “You need to calm down, J. I know you're scared and shocked but calm down. Lance will come and explain everything to you himself, be calm,” J shook her head negatively, her eyes rolling down tears. She couldn't believe that they were actually deliberating about killing her. Burning her alive! “My life is at stake now, and you expect me to calm down? If you were in my shoes, would you?” She asked Justin. “I need to get out of here. Anna and I need to go far away from here,” she pressed. Justin sighed as he didn't know what to

    Lance POV.I rushed to my room, opened the door without knocking, and saw J was staring out the window. Immediately she heard the door open, she turned in shock. I felt pity when I saw the fear in her eyes. She felt it was someone here to hurt her. Immediately she saw me, she rushed to me and literally jumped on me. Just then, she burst into tears. My heart tightened in my chest. She was afraid, and I hated it. I hated to see her in pain, in tears whatsoever. “J…”"Am I going to die? Am I going to leave this world just like that? I didn't know about it, I didn't do anything? Am I going to die for their sins?” She asked as she sobbed.My jaw clenched along with my fist that had come to rest on her back. I hated this, I hated that she heard them, I hated that she saw them as a threat and my pack as somewhere no longer safe. “J…” “Lance, Lance, tell me they are no longer angry. Tell me they won't hurt me, they won't kill Anna and I?”"Nothing would happen to you, nobody would hurt y

I asked him to be sure. My head spurned as I struggled to process everything because the last thing I remembered was me standing in front of him and then a total black out."How do you feel now?"

I picked up my pace, but came to a halt when my nose picked up another scent, mine. Wary once more, I picked up my pace, quieter this time, and looked towards the source. Beyond the trees was what looked like a cave. I had no doubt J was there. I glanced behind him and beside the cave, but I couldn’t pick up any scent apart from ours. This wasn’t going to work. J could be at risk currently while I was waiting on a ghost. I left the comfort of the trees and dashed into the cave. There she was, lying motionless on the ground…“J?” I shouted, my heart dropping when she didn’t respond.I rushed to her side and growled in fury when I noticed that her hands and legs had been tied to the stone. Desperately, I placed a finger under her nose and on her wrist and finally breathed again when I noticed that she was still breathing. Her pulse also sounded strong. Just unconscious then
