(Amaia)
I know what's coming, I can't avoid it any longer. The memories of last night come flooding back, bringing with them a sense of guilt.
It's not that I regret defending my mates. I would do it all over again and not let anyone harm a single hair on their bodies.
It's the fact that I took two lives for the first time. I know they belonged to the bloody Dread Army, but taking lives affects you on a psychological level.
Min's hold tightens on me. He can sense my emotions through the mate bond.
"I understand the consequences of my actions. Will they be coming for me?" The blast resulting from my powers must have reached every Enforcer in Orion.
"We will annihilate whoever dares to," Alnitak fiercely says. His hand takes mine, and he assures me by squeezing it.
"We won't let anyone harm you, Amaia," Saiph says in his thick voice but there is an underlying concern for me.
