Hudson meets my eyes then, seeing the truth in my words. Finally.

I'm glad to see that he seems to rise to the challenge. Perhaps this is what it will take to make Hudson the man and wolf he needs to be: the right woman.

"You should probably go talk to her," I tell him, dismissing him and nodding toward the upper floor where Brooklyn is.

Hudson sets his jaw and leaves. Before the door closes behind him, I see him paused at the foot of the staircase as if he's deciding whether or not to follow my advice.
