Chapter 123 DANE 1/5 Wh … are you trying to tell me , Evelyn ? I asked .

Id known her for so long .

Id seen her happy , angry, smug , self righteous , and livid with rage .

But I had never seen her look … burdened .

Or tired .

Or uncertain .

She looked all of those things now .

She was always so confident , it felt wrong to see this worn look on her face , instead .

I turned on her , and only digging down to the iron core of my control kept me from turning into my lycan form and taking her by the throat .
