“Somehow, Dean always managed to make me feel… normal. Even when he’d caught me stealing bread from the kitchen when we were both young, he’d peered at me with his disarming tawny eyes and, without a second thought, had started pretending he was stealing bread as well, pulling me behind the wooden table so the cook wouldn’t see us. As if we’d been playing the game together the whole time.”
― Mia Hartson, Shadow Shifter
