And then there's Thorn. The savage. He has lived in the woods, on an island with his people for centuries. With him, I feel... claimed, owned. It's in the way he looks at me, the way he talks to me, binds me with his words, that clever mind. And, of course, it's definitely in the way he kissed me.
In an island,in the middle of nowhere,with a wide web of lies,secrets and deceit, everybody has something to hide. Me....I'm just a terrified woman, trying to find my way back to my true destination.

"I..."
"Stop it!" he shouts, stopping me in mid sentence "I hate you."
"B-But why? Why do you hate me?"

"Stop! Stop acting so naive and shit!"
"I..."
"I hate you! And that's it!" he turns and starts walking away.

"Absolutely! We USED to be!" he says over his shoulder and dissappears from my sight.
