Kalev’s POV
When I first found the little group, Thor had reached for his axe. Defensively, I told them about the clause. I told them I’d come to help Senna. She was my mate after all.
“I gave up everything to be here,” I said. “My job as architect included. If you’re going to kill me then fine. But at least let me help her first.”
They all eyed my skeptically. They didn’t trust me as far as they could throw a stick. I didn’t blame them.
“I know a place,” I said. “A place we can go. No one else knows about it. It’s through a cave in the mountain. It’s…it was a place for engineers to go. If they ever got stuck on the island. It will be safe. Please, just let me help her.”
My voice cracked as I pleaded with them. Isolde was the first to realize that maybe, just maybe, I could help them
