Chapter 55

• Dahlia's gaze fell to the ground, where the marking awaited her. She recognized it would lead her to an exit; she couldn't bear to remain here for another moment, alone with her turbulent thoughts.

• Xavier was a demon, a hybrid. His father ruled the underworld while his mother had once been an Alpha. Dahlia was just a wolf, unsure of her own heritage, with no knowledge of who her real father was.
