AdaI placed my hands gently on his chest and neck, listening for signs of life. It would be pointless to attempt to  save a man if he was already dead.I might not have my wolf yet, but that didn't mean I was totally useless. I actually had quite a gift for healing, and I used that gift now, though it didn't take an expert to conclude that the man was indeed still alive. However, it would take skill to get the man to safety by myself.And for some reason, after placing my hands on him I really didn't want this man to die now. I shook my head as the feelings of sadness and heartbreak tried to make me pity him. I was only feeling those things surely because of how handsome his face was. There was something so striking and strong, yet still so gentle about his face and I found myself leaning in to get a better look before I caught myself and shook my head again.I had been wanting to see his eyes.I looked around me once more. Nobody seemed

*Bryson*I stared at the beautiful woman in front of me as she looked at me in confusion. She didn't seem like a threat, but I couldn't help but force myself to stay strong in front of her, despite how hard it was to stay on my feet.Or maybe I didn't want to look weak in front of her for a different reason."A…disease?" she asked.Her voice had calmed down again, and I had to admit that when she wasn't screaming at me, her voice actually sounded quite nice. There was something melodic in the way her sentences lifted."Yes, a disease," I told her, trying to convince her as much as myself. "Since I was 10 years old, I would have irregular pain in my bones all over my body. Sometimes even to the point of fainting."I left off the rest of my tragic story. She didn't need to know that my parents had spent as much money and time trying to find the most powerful healer or the most powerful medicine, and none of it helped in any way. In fact, all t

*Bryson*I laid on my back, staring up at the greenhouse roof that was changing colors with the rising sun.It had been days since Ada and I had come up with our plan to go to the Grandmoon gardens, and yet here I was, hiding in a shed. Ada insisted that I still wasn't strong enough to travel and wanted to give me a couple more days of healing before we took the long journey.And as much as I didn't want to seem weak in front of her, I had to admit that she might be right. When Ada wasn't keeping me company, I tried to do a few workouts (small ones that I was able to accomplish in the small space of the shed) and even those I had been unable to finish after getting winded and lightheaded.Ada insisted I needed to stay in the shed though, and away from the sight of anyone in her pack, especially her parents. There would be too many questions that neither of us really wanted to answer.There was a small noise behind me, and I couldn't help the small

*Bryson*I stepped out of the lake, water running down my legs as the air chilled the skin beneath my soaked clothes. Yet it was still not the most miserable thing about me.Watching Ada being dragged away had left an empty spot in my chest that didn't feel right. I never would have imagined that after being with someone for a week I could feel so strongly, but there was something about Ada.She was special.I cursed out in frustration and began to pace the waters edge, ignoring the squishing of my shoes and the sticking of my clothes. In reality, it was easy not to think about them, because the only thing I could think about was the girl who had just been ripped from my arms.Her dad hadn't even hesitated to attack me or to drag her away. What was happening in the Western Pack that the people had grown accustomed to attacking first and asking questions never?And what was that Ada had said about getting answers? It was clear that her parents did not like my pack, but what was

*Bryson*"Nothing, it's just something you said," I looked off over her head. "It made me think of my own situation, you know, my poisoning."She opened her mouth, intent on comforting the man that had me wrapped in his arms. Before she could though, I looked back down at her."Was what you said true?" I asked. "Do people who know medicine know how to harm people?"My mind was whirling as Ada's words hit me.Over the past few days I had thought about the fact that I had been poisoned since childhood. While it had been hard to come to terms with the idea of someone that close to me betraying me, I needed to find out who it was. Every time Ada left me, that was all I could think about.And something Ada had just said struck a chord that I hadn't considered before.She had said something along the lines of all healers knowing how to kill people, and it made me realize…one of the only people I hadn't considered."Was what you said
