When my teeth close around the arm holding the gun, I hear his squeal of surprise, his blood coating my mouth as I bite down, throwing him down on the ground with the weight of my wolf body. The asshole screams in pain, but the screams are music to my ears, the fucker thought he could stand over my woman with a gun, scaring her, I will now show him what it’s like to be scared.

“What…” he starts to say, but I let go of his arm and jump at his neck just as his uninjured arm comes up and punches me on the side, connecting with my front flank where I was injured by the bullet. The pain shoots through my body, a sensation of lightness filling me, but I refuse to pass out. My woman is in danger, and I will not let her down.

Shaking my head, I bite down on the asshole’s throat, hearing him gurgle as the blood starts to pool there. He tries to push me away using his arms, but I hold on with my teeth, not giving an inch. He was threatening my mate, and now he will die. His struggles start to weaken, but I feel myself weakening too. I refuse to give in. What feels like hours but can’t be more than a couple of minutes passes until he’s quiet and then I hear his last breath leaving his body, which has me finally opening my jaw.

Raising my head, I step over him. My front flank gives away, which has me dropping down as I take in deep breaths to contain the pain that is now constant. I hear a cry. Opening my eyes, I see Siena running towards me, tears racing down her face. There is no one more beautiful than my woman, her blond hair blowing behind her as she races towards me, her beautiful eyes shining with worry for me. Closing my eyes, I change into my human form just as she reaches me.

“Are you okay?” she asks, falling to her knees next to me. “Blue, are you okay?” she asks again when I don’t answer.

“Yeah, just give me a minute,” I murmur as I try to breathe the pain away.

“You’re bleeding,” she says worriedly as she pokes at my wound, making me growl in pain.

“Stop poking at it,” I mutter as I push myself into a sitting position with my good arm. Suddenly her arms are around my neck and she’s hugging me close. I slide my good arm around her waist, pulling her closer as she cries against my neck.

“Does this happen often?” she asks.

“It happens more now that we are at war with the Hades MC, that’s why I need you to stay safe at all times.”

She leans back to look at me. “Why are you at war with the Hades MC?”

“We helped one of the women that they kidnapped go back home.”

She nods, a frown appearing on her face.

“That’s a good reason, I guess; do they kidnap women often?” Looks like my woman is a curious thing. I go on to tell her about the Hades MC kidnapping women and trafficking them or having them work for them as drug mules. I’m still telling her about their organization when I realize that she’s poking at my wound again, a frown of concentration on her face as she tries to feel for a bullet still in my arm.

My woman is crafty, she’s distracting me while she tries to fix my arm, but then she presses just near my ribcage, a shooting pain rides from where my ribs are all over my body leaving me breathless for a minute. “What… the fuck?” I ask trying to look down, but she pushes me down ignoring my growl of irritation.

“The bullet went through your arm and lodged between your ribs.”

I try to lift my head again to look down, but she pushes me down again. “Stop moving, you are making it worse,” she murmurs just as Fang comes into my line of vision.

“What the hell?” he asks as he squats down next to me.

“I need to pull the bullet out; will you hold him down please?”

What the fuck? I don’t need my brother to hold me down. I will lay still without needing help.

Fang places his hands on my shoulders, holding me down, but I shrug them off. “I don’t need you to hold me…” Siena touches my side, which has me gasping and flinching. “Fuck,” I mutter.

“See? You need him to hold you down,” she says as she leans over me to kiss my forehead. “Please let us help you.”

Her worried expression has me sighing as I lay back, closing my eyes before I nod. A minute later Fang is holding my shoulders again, and then I feel an intense pressure on my side, like a hot poker being pushed into it. Gritting my teeth, I refuse to make a sound or move, I will not worry my woman because of a scrape.

Suddenly the pressure subsides, but the pain continues, a stabbing pain that has me wanting to kill the motherfucker all over again. Taking a deep breath, I push myself into a sitting position, Siena complains when she sees what I’m doing because she’s trying to find bandages, but I will not be lying on the ground out here like a fucking corpse.

“Stop being a fucking martyr, change into your wolf,” Fang growls as he helps me stand. In our wolf form we heal faster, but I want to make sure that my woman is safe before I think of healing.

“Why his wolf?” Siena asks as she starts to tear the bottom of her shirt.

“We heal faster in our wolf form.”

She stops what she’s doing, widening her eyes, she looks at me.

“Why aren’t you changing?” she asks, curiosity is in her voice.

“I want to make sure everything is safe first.” Taking her hand, I pull her closer, I can see the concern in her expression as she looks at me.
