Chapter 55

“You are the fire burning inside me.” Kelvin O’Ralph

If ’d had a camera or a phone nearby, I would’ve snapped a photo of the look on Griffin’s face when I told him I wanted

to claim him. He looked like I’d just told him I was secretly an alien or lived on the moon ~ or some other impossible

thing. 7

With his jaw hanging open, Griffin finally managed to speak. “Claim me?” he said. “Like with a bite?”

I knew the idea sounded ridiculous. I wasn’t a wolf. I didn’t have fangs that could magically leave scars. But I did have

teeth and canines. Maybe they weren’t as sharp, but they could still sink into somebody’s neck. They could leave scars

“T hate to state the obvious here,” Griffin said, “But as much as I may call you my little fox, you’re still human. You won’t

be able to leave a claiming bite.” (1)

“Why not?” I snapped back, and I tried not to sound like I was pouting. “T have teeth too. Some of them are sharper than

they look.”

“Pm sure they are,” Griffin said, sounding amused. “But I have supernatural healing abilities. Unless your teeth are made

of silver, the

mark will just fade. Probably within seconds.”

Logically, I knew he was right. Werewolves healed much more quickly than humans. They weren’t even capable of getting

scars, not unless they were made through silver blades or weapons.
