Rushing out of the room, I took the elevator downstairs, barely registering the huge tear in my side that revealed healed skin from where I was clawed. My face and neck were mightily bruised but that would fade in minutes or so, all I care about is finding Sadie alive.

As soon as the elevators opened, I rushed out, suddenly remembering we met security downstairs and had no idea if they were poisoned too. I ran into the parking lot and was just in time to see Sadie shoot a taser gun at one of the men. To my Surprise, she didn’t flinch until he was down on his knees and eventually out cold on the floor.

that moment, I knew she’d make a badass Elite Warrior.

Just then, I heard sounds of struggle, and when I looked to my far left, I saw two of the security men fighting. Immediately, he pulled out a gun and shot the other several times.

Unsure what was happening, I ran into the open space, straight for Sadie and when she saw me, she opened her arms for an embrace. She hugged me tight but my eyes were focused on the man approaching us now.

I unwrapped myself from Sadie’s hold, pulled her behind me and snarled at him.

“No!” Sadie rushed before me. “He’s cool.”

I looked at her and then at the security watching me warily. “He’s not poisoned. He’s one of the good ones.” Sadie continued “Saved my life.”

“What happened?” He asked and I did my best to narrate.

“No wonder. When I saw Prince Theon with that girl. I just knew something was off.” He said, planting his hands on his waist and shaking his head. “I guess that’s why Prince Miro asked me and my buddies to be on duty today.”

My eyes then fell on the other two men, sitting in a corner, in the pool of their own blood leaning their backs against a car, They seemed to be in serious pain but still breathing.

“What happened?” I asked.

As soon as I got down, I ran to the security.” Sadie explained, “but the two bad ones attacked them badly. I was able to tase one while he,” She motioned to the guard, “took care of the other.”

“Are they going to be okay?” I asked, nodding my head towards those guys.

“Yeah. They’ll be fine.” The guy said. “They just need to heal.”

“What about the guys up there?” Sadie asked, “It’s not safe if they come downstairs.”

Before he could reply, the low purr of an engine reached us, and moments later, Miro strode in, dressed in a suit that fit him like a second skin, his bow tie slightly loosened as if he’d rebelled against perfection.

My heart gave a traitorous flutter.

Miro rarely wore suits, and seeing him now, with that careless elegance and a smoldering gaze, he seemed like a prince stepping out of a dream. For an instant, he looked so much like Theon–but there was an edge to Miro, a touch of wildness that made it hard to look away.

His green eyes took in the scenery and when they landed on me, he made a beeline towards me.

“Are you okay?” He asked concerned, his green eyes assessing my body. “Gods! You look really hurt.”

“I’m fine.” I replied, never knowing he could be this caring.

“I’m okay too.” Sadie said, waving awkwardly to the side. “Glad to be alive.”

Miro sighed, before pulling her in for a hug. She melted into his embrace, looking so small and cute in his arms and that once again reminded me of Theon. He used to do that to me.

After debriefing Miro, he told us to go on to the party, that he would take care of the mess.

Tsuddenly felt bad. “I’m sorry I made a mess.” I said to him, as the wind blew my hair around. His eyes cut to me, a twinkle. of something shining in his eyes.

He reached out, his fingers warm as they brushed a stray strand of hair from my face. “Considering the circumstances, you did really well. Proud of you.”

I blinked, caught off guard. Those last three words sent a strange thrill through me, something I couldn’t quite name but felt like a spark low in my stomach.

Did I just get a compliment from the Miro Windermere?

He must have sensed my reaction, because he stepped back, folding his arms behind him, a faint hint of a smile tugging at his lips.

Afterward, Sadie and I headed home, but the whole ride back, his words echoed in my mind, each repetition tugging at that same mysterious place inside me.

Why did it matter so much that he was proud of me? And why did I suddenly crave to hear him say it again?
