Kyrell observed his mate's face as she slept peacefully on his bed. He made sure to cover her with thick furs to keep her warm while keeping the fireplace running.

That made him think about all that she had to endure while she was in her most vulnerable state. He once again couldn't help but think about Alice. He should have killed her by his own hands. Kyrell knew that it was wrong of him to think about harming a Female, but he couldn't stop his thoughts from going that way. Alice had almost ruined his life and for what?
