Damien's P.O.V. It all made sense now... the comments Charlotte made about people wanting to manipulate and use her, the towns going wild with excitement or anger when people recognized her, and needing to use a different name. Even the way she carried herself, so confident and poised. She had the
Charlotte could have anyone in the world, and I knew she should mate a nobleman and produce strong lycan babies like her people expected. Not hybrids who could end up being either a wolf or a bear. Still, the selfish part of me demanded that she return home so I could fill her with my babies and we
