I fell through the sky and fear raced through me. Thankfully, the port was more than my mangled body could handle. My eyes rolled up in the back of my head.My last terrified thought before I fainted was filled with relief: I wouldn't be forced to see my lifeMate's face as he rejected me. I figured it was a good thought to have in my brain when I died.~ ~ ~The sound of my chattering teeth briefly woke me up. There was snow everywhere. Big fluffy clouds bloomed behind the bare branched trees spread high above me. I knew I wasn't in my right mind, because the clouds looked pink.I shouldn't be alive, but even young it was hard to kill a Sídhí without chopping her head off.I fainted and a loud sound woke me. It couldn't be my teeth chattering. It was much too loud. Though, the pain-filled sound fit my state of mind.The sound grew louder, developing into an agonized roar.I woke. It was still freezing. I curled my fingers in snow. I'd gone past agony and into a state that was beyond description. My entire body felt like a hundred knives were ripping into me, shredding me into little pieces over and over again, ripping through bone and muscle.Something warm gently touched my face.My eyes flickered open at the soft caress.I wished I'd kept them shut.Chi’Kehra hovered over me, his handsome face contorted. Whether it was rage that I didn't die or grief that I still lived, I didn't know.“LifeMate,” he snarled. For an elf, without the fangs of a vampire, he did a fairly good snarl.My eyes went black and I didn't need to worry about the hatred in eyes as he glared at me.~ ~ ~Her eyes briefly fluttered open.He choked back a hiss of fury. Unable to kill the one person he wanted tortured and ripped into a thousand pieces, he ordered the healer closer.The petite healer hesitated and he bellowed his fury at her. He wanted to destroy everything in sight, but it wouldn't help matters.His guards tugged at his arms, urging him to back away, but he refused to budge.The healer dropped to her knees beside his mate, whose lifeblood soaked the snow red. The slender hands of the healer touched blood covered skin and she shook her head; regret twisted her face.
