Kai snapped out of his trance the moment Shadow howled in his head with a piercing cry, followed by a thunderous wave of desire, hunger, and thirst that ravaged his blood. His skin prickled with urgency, compelling him to ask before acting to comfort her. "Wife!" His deep voice rumbled from his chest.
Ren clenched his clothes between her fingers as she felt the tremor in his chest. His heartbeat had taken off in a race, and all she could do was revel in the sound of it. She had never felt such heat coursing through her body.

"Reneira, what happened? Did that bastard hurt you?" he asked, overwhelmed. Was she crying because of him? Gods, no! He had warned her, he couldn't bear the sight of her tears.
