Elena's POV
With a flick of his wrist, Alpha Killian freed me from the chains that bound me, his touch gentle yet firm. "Are you hurt, Elena?" he asked, his voice laced with concern as he helped me to my feet.
I shook my head, tears of relief streaming down my cheeks. "I'm okay, thanks to you," I whispered, overwhelmed by gratitude for his timely intervention.
Alpha Killian pulled me into a reassuring embrace, his presence a comforting anchor in the midst of chaos. "You're safe now, Elena," he murmured, pressing a tender kiss to my forehead. "I won't let anyone harm you or our son ever again."
And in that moment, I clung to him with all the strength I had left.
Alpha Killian's gaze flickered to the unconscious assailant before turning back to me, his eyes reflecting a storm of emotions. "He won't be causing you any more harm," he said, his voice low and controlled, though a dangerous edge lingered beneath the surface.
