Merek watched as Rose pulled the bullet out of her shoulder. He had almost missed what Rose and Zane were talking about, he was too concerned with Evence. "Eve was not the target, I was." Merek spoke in an angry tone. He blamed himself for what happened, but it was no time to beat himself up. Instead he went To Evence and placed his left hand on hers. "I am sorry, I never mean't to endanger your life my mate. Can you please tell me all that you know about this threat so far? I am the target he, and possibly more sought to be killed." Merek spoke using their mental link. He had no desire to share this conversation with anyone, not even Zane or Boa.<br/><br/>-----<br/>Zane felt his gut twisting when he heard Merek speak. To make a direct attempt on Merek's life meant that this threat was far more serious than he had anticipated. "What about can I do? I am useless with my body like this." Zane was beginning to get frustrated. He hated being crippled like this, and the timing could not be worse. Merek needed him now more than ever.
