ARIS
Even as fury pounded through him, he was damned impressed by her skills. She wouldn't get away, no matter how fancy her moves. And when he caught her, she was getting a throat full of his teeth.
Unfortunately, that wouldn't be tonight. Not with Kane injured.
Heart hammering, both pissed and worried, Aris knelt next to his friend, his mentor. "C'mon. I'll get you to safety."
"Get. Her."
"I'm not leaving you." Aris would take Kane back to the rental car. It was a clusterfuck now. Why had she attacked them? Was she protecting Gareth? That didn't make any sense. Gareth was more than capable of kicking ass, and he'd never give the job of protecting himself and his mate to someone else.
What the fuck was going on here?
Kane gripped his arms and used Aris's strength to help him sit up. "Can't. Leave." He struggled to take breaths and Aris felt panic well. Kane sucked in a breath. "I'm healing. Go… g-get her."
"I'll kill her."
