~ ZEV ~
A snarl tore out of his throat as Zev threw himself back down the cave to the gateway. He didn't let himself think or question, because if he did he was going to launch himself in the opposite direction and go straight for Nick's throat. But he couldn't, he knew. He was already shaky with tiredness, and now…
How had Nick known that he was there? How the fuck had he known?
As he stumbled for the gateway he swore. The only possible explanation was that they'd found a way to mark the bond in Sasha and were monitoring it. But, how? Had she told them about it? Or had they been able to figure it out?
He stepped into the gateway, the cave in Thana fixed in his mind, reminding himself that this was only for a few more days. He wasn't leaving her in Nick's grip forev—
Two steps into the lighted path through the gateway the pain hit him like the claws of a bear, piercing, blazing, tearing.
