54. NATE

I pulled Angel against my body and frowned at Lucas. “Take Mason with you.” “I can handle it,” he growled. “I’m sure you can, but this isn’t up for debate. Take him with you.” He pursed his lips and growled at me before he took off again. My hold on Angel tightened as I turned and led us to the castle entrance. She was trembling. Instead of taking her to our bedroom, I led her to my office. “I need to use the bathroom,” Angel said softly as soon as we entered. I nodded towards it. The door clicked closed softly behind her. I hesitated a few seconds before I made my way over to my desk. A sound from the bathroom made me freeze. Spinning around, I hurried over to the door and twisted the knob. She locked it. With a growl, I twisted the knob until I snapped the lock and then entered the room. The sight of Angel on her knees clutching the toilet as she puked made worry fill me. I hurried over to her and crouched next to her to rub her back. “Finished?” I asked when she was done.
