"Why are you helpingso much?" | swatted at a few more tears and her chuckle was soft.
"You haven't figured it out, have you? | thought you had, from your last words of your first life." She wrapped her
arms around my waist and we walked again, deeper into my soul.
"What do you mean?"
"Do you remember what you said?"
"Yes." | closed my eyes and pictured my last day. As Brandon stood over me. My declaration. "But we are all

She nodded. "All wolves are descended from my power. And you know Lycans are my descendants as well. Do

eyes adjusted to the darkness of the land.
