***Talon‘s POV
After the conversation I had with Ethan, I went to see Estrella the next day. She had made sure to put Rosalie on a strict diet and rest order to ensure she gained her strength back. A couple weeks had passed, and Rosalie had been improving steadily, both physically and mentally. Estrella convinced me that Rosalie needed to get out of the house. That way, she wouldn‘t feel like she was a prisoner within our walls – of course, she would always need to be accompanied. Usually, I watched Rosalie from a distance. My sister Vicky had taken over being Rosalie‘s caretaker when it came to venturing outside of the main house. The two of them got along quite well.

Here … give it to me.” I quickly took it from her open hand and placed it around my neck. It definitely wasn‘t something I would ever personally choose to wear, but she had made it for me and given it to me as a gift. So I wasn‘t going to be disrespectful. I had seen how quickly her mood changed when I questioned her. It was a shame she always seemed to feel the way she did. She didn’t realize how captivated everyone was with her, and how well respected she already was for someone who had not been here all that long. It was like a feeling deep inside us. Our wolves could sense there was more to her than there seemed. A connection. “Well, what do you think?” I asked, trying to make myself look happy. As
