Finn’s eyes went wide, and he tried to pull out of her grasp, but he wasn’t fast enough. Rennick grabbed him by the neck and threw him back with an animalistic snarl. He heard his best friend hit the ground with a grunt, but he didn’t care. All he cared about was his mate’s terrified scream. He reached for her, but she jumped away and moved toward Finn. “Stay back!” Finn yelled as he scrambled backward. “Don’t fucking yell at her,” Rennick bellowed, taking a menacing step forward. Finn moved farther away and said to Amelia, “Don’t touch me or your mate will rip me in half.”
