Chapter 73

• Killian POV
• When I wake, my body feels worn down, heavy with the toll of yesterday and the long night that followed. Wolves are used to the rhythm of heat; once you knot, it usually brings relief, sometimes for hours, sometimes until the whole cycle burns out. With Aurora, it’s different. Nothing about what she went through is what I know, and the truth is I don’t understand enough about the fae side of her to guide her properly. But that doesn’t change the fact that I have to try. She needs help, and that means I’ll have to find someone who can teach her, someone who can show her how to control the power that nearly tore her apart.
• There are fae who walked away from their kind to live among humans, and if I can track down even one who’s willing to guide her, it could change everything.
