realized that he would never seeas anything other than a broken down person.
“What were you going to do? Break your alpha kings command? You and | both couldn't do a damn thing about
it, and we both know it. Look, It happened, so let's just forget about it and move on.” His eyes welled up a bit
and | frowned at his sorrow. Thinking back, the man did shout an awful lot of disagreement while the king had his

cupping my cheek in his large palm, | subconsciously lean into it, feeling a small flutter of sparks run through me
at his touch.
“There's nothing either of us would do differently, because there was nothing we could do then! Let's just leave
