(Amaia)
Saiph gives me a brief hug, but the way he stares at me and how warm his touch is reveal his inner joy at finding that I recognise the mate bond between us.
My brother was right, he knew and informed me, letting me know that I have five mates.
The mindlink between the twins and me opens as they sense my heightened distress and emotions.
"Amaia! Is everything alright? We are coming to you."
No, I don't want them here and see Rigel in such a state.
"I am with Rigel and Saiph at the moment. You guys stay put, I will come to you," I tell them through the mindlink and close it. I need to focus on Rigel.
All that gore and blood is making me sick to the stomach, but I need to bear it for him. I can't have him feeling less wanted because he is different from others.
"Why don't I go and get rid of these before someone sees them and…" Saiph makes eye contact with me and I nod.
