At the inn that night, Cedric wrote down why he was wary of Lance–tall and fierce werewolves like him would whip people, kick them, lift them like chicks, then throw them into a tub and hold their heads under water until they couldn’t breathe, before pulling them out.

He sighed slowly and said, “We’ll take it slow. I’ll try to be gentle and smile more.”

Both Cedric’s physical wounds and emotional scars would heal in time.
