CHAPTER 61

The words Ramon had just spoken echoed in Xavian's mind, stinging his ears. Because they were true and now he felt pitifully amused by himself. 

Ramon stared at him for a moment in silence. 

"What do you think? Am I wrong?" 

"No. You're not." 

His lips angled into a smile. "Xavian—" 

"You know, my wolf didn't want us to let go. It doesn't share that fear with me, but I shut it down." 

"You didn't make it go silent, did you?" 

"I did." Xavian shrugged. 

Ramon's expression changed and he sighed. "What I would give to speak to my wolf."

"It isn't as nice as you think." Xavian shook his head. "It's like a constant loud voice in your head. Not very entertaining." 

The man smiled. "Still, I consider you lucky. The first of our kind to ever hear his wolf. Not even your father has that gift." 

"Like I said, not as entertaining as you think."
