Caspian’s PovMy head hit the ground hard, too fast for me to brace myself. At first my vision blurred, then my hearing followed. I groaned loudly when the pain vibrated through my skull. Can I go a single day outside my room without getting beaten up? Ever since I came to this pack, it had been one physical injury after another. I pushed against him, trying to break free, but he was far too strong for me to push off. So I stayed buried under him while their stupid leader threatened to strip Adonis naked. “You don’t expect me to walk all the way to the mountain path naked now, do you?” Adonis stepped back.The Adonis I knew would have ripped their throats out within seconds. But not this version of him. This Adonis was weak, cautious, and trying not to get himself killed. I couldn't decide if that was a good change or a bad one. I scanned my environment.
