When | take Angel into the bathroom, | know she’s expectingto do something sexual or lewd. So, | make it a
point to not look at her, well, not much. I've already seen her body, several times while she was unconscious. It's
already etched into my mind. I know that you can see every rib, that her hips bones jut out too sharply, that her
shoulders have more bone than meat on them. She’s not only a small girl but she’s been starving for a long
time. | can’t wait to see what her body looks like when she fills out. Cyran and | will make sure she eats and gets
enough food. She will never go hungry again.
When | tell her to lay back so | can wash her hair, | can feel her eyes drilling holes into my

| want to ask her more questions, but | don’t want to ruin this moment. She’s calm and doesn’t look like she’s
ready to bolt at the slightest hint of an opportunity. So, | wait.

will react, especially since her wolf isn’t yet at full strength. So, | decide to go with my gut. I'm pretty sure her

“You have been injured and are in danger. You stumbled into my pack practically. on your death bed. While you
are a rogue and | have to take that into
consideration, you have also been through a lot and need my protection. An Alpha’s job is to protect those that
cannot protect themselves. While that mostly applies to my pack, it also applies to others that may cross my
path. So, I'm helping you because it’s the right thing to do. And as an Alpha, it’s my responsibility.”

When | finish untangling her hair, | can’t tell how long it is, but | know it’s long and so silky. | run my fingers
through it longer than | need to because I love the way it feels. | know she said she wants to cut it, but | really
hope it’s not too short.
Everything about her is unique. Her hair is so white that it can’t even be considered blond. Her eyes are a pale
gray, so pale that it’s hard to really determine what color they are. It’s not until | looked at her, so close to me
while. rinsing her hair that | finally realized that they are gray. Not blue-gray, not green -gray. Just gray.
When I'm done rinsing her hair again, | stand and bring her a towel. “Do you need more tto bathe?” | ask
her.
