Blackfeather Woods You can repent but I warn you,

It was true, Damien didn't have anything nice to say about her. Pretty much, he said, siezed with another painful coughing fit brought on by just the exertion of walking. His lungs burned, the pain nothing like he had ever felt, but he tried his best to keep it to himself. He wheezed and looked back to Maegi. But he isn't here anymore, so his words mean nothing to me. It was a lie, one that was painful for him to speak. He still owed a lot to the Melonii leader, even if he was doubting his family as a whole lately. He hated speaking against him, but standing up for him would hardly paint him a good light with the blackfeather wolves. I'm interested to learn all the ways he was wrong, the beast added. That part wasn't necessarily a lie; he did want to know more about his relative, just not for the reasons she probably thought.
