Consciousness returned slowly, like swimming up through murky water. My head throbbed, and my mouth felt dry as sandpaper. I blinked, trying to focus on the face above me.
"Liam?" My voice came out as a raspy whisper.
"I'm here, baby. You're safe now." His arms tightened around me, solid and warm.
Relief flooded through me as the fog in my mind cleared. I was in Liam's arms, his naked chest warm against my cheek. My eyes darted around, taking in the scene. Lucas was still in wolf form, his massive black body positioned protectively in front of us, hackles raised and golden eyes glowing in the darkness. Levi was a few feet away, completely naked and pinning down my attacker with one hand wrapped around his throat.
"Who are you?!" Levi demanded, his voice a feral growl.
