    "Too stupid to fly," murmured his father with a little smile.”

    "You don't have a heart," I told him. "Just a gaping hole where it should have been."
    "All the more reason for you to give me yours."

    “Despite the way our bond scares you, despite the way someone in the pack played you, you’d still have me?”
    He'd been listening to my thoughts. This time it didn't bother me.

    “You forget the life you had before, after awhile. Things you cherish and hold dear are like pearls on a string.
