Call me first.” “I will contact you if I need help,” Darius promised. “How are things in Livingston?” “We are on alert. The hunters are coming to guard the farm.” I looked back towards the house. “Serena is on her way to collect Elena. Like Maya, Sienna refuses to leave. If there is an attack, she intends to fight beside me.” “Our mates are stubborn,” Darius muttered. “They do not understand that we cannot fight properly while worrying about them.” “I tried telling Sienna that.” “It feels like carrying your heart outside your body during a battle,” Darius said.
